Vectren Ohio Default Service Retail Adder Set To Increase On April 1
Vectren Energy Delivery of Ohio’s (CenterPoint Energy Ohio) Standard Choice Offer auction conducted on January 22, 2024, resulted in a Retail Price Adjustment (RPA) of $1.30 per Mcf for the period April 1, 2024, through March 31, 2025, which is approximately 30% higher than the current RPA of $1.00 per Mcf.
The auction results remain subject to approval by PUCO.
Under the SCO auction, winning suppliers will directly serve non-shopping, choice-eligible customers won through the auction for the period April 1, 2024, through March 31, 2025, at a price equal to the Retail Price Adjustment, fixed for the 12-month term, plus the NYMEX prompt month settlement price for gas. Winning bidders also provide a proportional share of the volumes required to serve choice-ineligible customers under Default Sales Service.
There were five registered bidders in the 2024 auction, with three winning bidders. The year-ago 2023 auction had six bidders and four winning bidders.
Winning bidder identities will remain confidential for approximately 15 days.
