UGI Files Proposed New Default Service Plan That Includes Proposed Changes To Utility Proposes Several Changes To Default Service Products To Reduce Risk Premiums
UGI Utilities, Inc. – Electric Division has filed at the Pennsylvania PUC for approval of a new default service plan (DSP V) that includes proposed changes to the default service portfolio to reduce risk premiums to customers.
The proposed DSP V would cover the period June 1, 2025, through May 31, 2029.
From UGI filing:
{***}. Enclosed for filing on behalf of UGI Utilities, Inc. – Electric Division (“UGI Electric” or the “Company”), please find the Petition of UGI Utilities, Inc. – Electric Division For Approval of Default Service Plan (DSP V) For The Period June 1, 2025 through May 31, 2029 (“Default Service Plan”). To facilitate approval, the Company has filed its direct testimony with the Default Service Plan. The filing consists of the following documents:
- Petition
- Appendix A – Electric Service Proforma Redline Tariff;
- Appendix B – UGI Electric Statement No. 1 of Jesse Tyahla with Exhibits JRT-1 and JRT-2
- Appendix C – UGI Electric Statement No. 2 of James Rouland with Exhibits JMR-1 through JMR-10
- Appendix D – UGI Electric Statement No. 3 of Tracy Hazenstab with Exhibits TAH-1 and TAH-2
Among other things the filing proposes:
“While the Company stands ready to support a Standard Offer Program, there are no retail EGSs that are currently participating in UGI Electric’s Standard Offer program.”
GSR-1 customers (those under 100 kW) – UGI’s proposed default service portfolio would include: 1) 24-month ATC block products; 2) staggered 12-month full requirements load-following contracts; and 3) a long-term supply arrangement between UGI and the Allegheny Electric Cooperative, Inc. (about 250kW)
Once over-hanging contracts from DSP IV expire, the “base” of the GSR-1 portfolio would consist of 20 MW of ATC block supply. There would be two staggered tranches of ATC block contracts. Each of the blocks would be for 10 MW of load and would be for a 24-month term.
