Current Electric Economic Development Rate
First adopted in 2000
Re-introduced October 2010
For large customers
40% off rate in year one
20% in year two
Concept: new business immediately pays all variable
costs – Generation and transmission - and transitions
to full rate to recover all distribution costs
Distribution costs recovered the faster we can spread
those fixed costs to more kWh
