A. Overview

2013 Guide to Electric and Natural Gas Utilities in South Carolina, SC Energy Office v

This report is intended to serve as a customer-focused guide to South Carolina’s retail electricity and natural gas distribution utilities, based on the most current publicly-available data. Comprehensive data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration is normally publicly released one year or more after the time period represented by the data. The following data are included in this report:

Customer, Revenue, Sales, and Average Revenue per Customer data are presented for all electric and natural gas utilities. “Average Revenue per Customer” is calculated by dividing a utility’s annual revenue by its annual sales. While this has in the past been called “average price,” actual utility rate schedules may vary depending on a customer’s particular usage characteristics and preferences.

Utility Distribution Systems data are presented for all electric utilities. A “Distribution Circuit” is any circuit with a voltage of 35kV or below that serves end use customers directly or through step-down transformers or substations. “Voltage Optimization” is a process used by electric distribution companies to actively manage voltage levels and reactive power on distribution circuits in order to reduce energy losses and improve reliability and power quality.

Dynamic Pricing Customer data are presented for all electric utilities. “Dynamic Pricing” (also known as time-based rate programing) is designed to modify patterns of electricity usage, including the timing and level of electricity demand. These programs charge consumers differing rates depending on when the electricity is being supplied. During times of greater demand or increased wholesale costs rates are increased, and are decreased during periods of lesser demand or lower wholesale costs.

Net Metering Customer and Purchases data are presented for electric utilities offering active “Net Metering” programs. These programs allow utility customers to sell surplus electricity that they generate back to their utility, helping them to save money on their electric bill.

Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) data are presented for electric utilities currently using AMR and/or AMI. AMR allows utilities to read customer meters remotely, reducing the cost of meter reading and permitting utilities to offer time-of-use pricing. AMI, including “smart meters”, enables two-way communication between customer meters and utility companies, often providing customers with greater ability to control their energy costs and participate in utility demand response programs.

Demand-Side Management Programs are listed for all electric and natural gas utilities. Demand-Side Management, or “DSM”, is a strategy that electric and natural gas utilities employ to decrease the demand for, and cost of, their energy services. DSM programs usually provide financial incentives for customer participation, such as bill credits or reduced utility rates. DSM can target customer usage continuously (“Energy Efficiency”) or during periods of peak demand (“Load Management”), and may rely on provision of information to encourage changes in customer behavior (“Public Information”).

The data in this report were provided by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (www.eia.gov). The information about DSM programs was collected through an annual survey conducted by the South Carolina Energy Office (“SCEO”). Due to changes in EIA data collection methods, small electric utilities now only report individual sector data every 5 years. These utilities are followed by an asterisk (*) in this report. In these cases the most recent previous year reported data is used. Overall totals are current as of 2013.

A. Overview

2013 Guide to Electric and Natural Gas Utilities in South Carolina, SC Energy Office vi

In previous versions of this report a section was dedicated to “Green Powers Customers, Revenue and Sales.” However, after the 2012 annual survey cycle the U.S. Energy Information Administration ended collection of this information. It was determined that these programs do not yet have a major presence in the retail power market and the value of the data collected is outweighed by the reporting burden it puts on respondents. The SCEO serves as South Carolina’s clearinghouse for publicly available energy data. In addition, the SCEO

provides a number of services to help South Carolinians reduce their energy expenses and develop clean,

indigenous energy resources. For more information about the SCEO, please visit www.energy.sc.gov or

B. Electric and Natural Gas Utilities in South Carolina

2013 Guide to Electric and Natural Gas Utilities in South Carolina, SC Energy Office vii

Retail customers in South Carolina are currently served by 46 electric distribution utilities and 15 natural gas distribution utilities. Each utility is granted exclusive rights to retail service provision within its respective service area. Service areas often traverse state lines—several utilities with headquarters in South Carolina also serve customers in neighboring states, and several utilities with headquarters outside of South Carolina also serve customers within the state. In 2011, there were four investor-owned electric utilities and two investor-owned natural gas utilities operating in South Carolina. In 2012, Duke Energy and Progress Energy merged, leaving only three investor-owned utilities in the state. However, they continue to report separately to the EIA, and are shown separately in this report. Investor-owned electric utilities generate the majority of their electricity through company-owned power plants and sell electricity to retail customers in their designated service areas as well as to various wholesale customers. The rate structures and customer services of investor-owned utilities are regulated by the South Carolina Public Service Commission (“PSC”) and its independent administrative counterpart, the South Carolina Office of Regulatory Staff (“ORS”). You can learn more about South Carolina’s investor-owned electric utilities through their annual Integrated Resource Plans, available online at http://energy.sc.gov/utilities. South Carolina has one state-owned utility—the South Carolina Public Service Authority, more commonly known as Santee Cooper. Santee Cooper generates and supplies power to the state’s electric cooperatives as well as to several municipal electric utilities. It also directly distributes power to a large number of retail customers in Berkeley, Georgetown, and Horry Counties. Twenty-one local governments in South Carolina currently own and operate their own electric distribution networks, while 13 local governments own and operate their own natural gas distribution networks. Municipal electric utilities purchase most of their electricity on the wholesale market, typically through contracts with the investor-owned utilities and Santee Cooper or through intermediaries such as the Piedmont Municipal Power Agency. Some municipalities also own their own electricity generating facilities. Municipal utilities are not subject to regulation by the PSC. There are currently 20 electric distribution cooperatives based in South Carolina. These customer-owned utilities supply primarily rural service areas which have historically had high per-customer costs of service due to their low population density. Twenty local distribution cooperatives pool their resources by securing electricity through Central Electric Power Cooperative, Inc., which purchases power from Santee Cooper and other wholesale suppliers and delivers it to co-op service areas through its statewide transmission network. Electric cooperatives are not subject to regulation by the PSC.
