Which Rate Structures Are Right For Your Utility? (online)

Course Overview

Rate structures are often established with consideration of cost of service results, market prices of electricity, social concerns, metering capabilities, and environmental objectives.  These objectives often conflict when applied to existing rate structures and many utilities are establishing alternative rate structures to reduce cost shifting between customers while moving toward the community’s rate objectives.  This session is an introduction to the class “Taking Advantage of our Transformative Future.”

1. Basic Rate design: Customer Charges, Energy Charges, and Demand Charges

2. Positives and negatives of basic rate structures

3. Industry rate design trends

4. Why rate structures are being updated
