AB 1117: Electricity: rates: optional dynamic rate tariffs.
This bill requires the Public Utilities Commission to develop optional dynamic rate tariffs for large electrical corporations. The tariffs must include a time-varying distribution rate, a time-varying generation rate, and nonbypassable charges. The commission must ensure that revenue requirements are correctly collected from customers, and any overcollection or undercollection is returned to the customers. The bill also requires customers with smart meters to have access to their interval usage data, and the commission must consider rules to protect vulnerable residential customers. The commission must also incorporate the effects of dynamic rate adoption into proceedings on revenue requirement cost recovery.
