Dockets:
PC65
Excerpts from Supplier Coalition’s request:
{***} “[T]he Supplier Coalition requests that the Commission enter an order:
- Granting this Application;
- Clarifying that the provisions and directives in the POR Order, including those involving the POR and UCB, do not apply to non-residential customers;
- Directing that there be a seamless transition to residential non-POR UCB by:
- Allowing retail electricity and natural gas suppliers to enroll new customers, and to renew existing customers, utilizing utilities’ existing UCB systems, with modifications as feasible, but ensuring that new or renewed customers’ receivables are not purchased and, therefore, compliant with SB1; and 15
- Establishing June 1, 2026, as the implementation date for residential non-POR UCB and directing the new UCB Work Group, led by Staff, to file status reports every two months and to present its reports at Commission administrative meetings to allow the Commission to: (1) closely monitor the utilities’ progress towards non-POR UCB; (2) resolve non-consensus issues promptly; and (3) extend the June 1, 2026 effective date if warranted;15
- Clarifying that electricity or natural gas supply agreements between a residential customer and a retail supplier: (1) entered into before January 1, 2025; (2) with a specific end date after January 1, 2025; (3) that authorize the supplier to alter the supply price monthly; and (4) that do not auto-renew at the end of the agreement, are grandfathered under Sections 7 and 9 of SB1;
- Granting a stay of enforcement of the POR Order until such time as the Commission decides the issues in this Application; and
- Granting other relief as is just and reasonable.
