Annual report of financial impact of videoconferencing activities period covered: July 2021 - December 2022

Abstract

During fiscal year 2022, the Public Service Commission of South Carolina conducted most hearings using videoconferencing as a means of all parties’ participation in the proceedings. The Commission had begun videoconferencing just before the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the past three years as the pandemic has progressed, livestreaming of Commission hearings, business meetings, and consultant interviews has increased significantly. Livestream data is compared for fiscal years 2019-2020 through 2021-2022.
