TVA rate modification
The Tennessee Valley Authority began a public comment period on Friday, seeking input on a draft Environmental Assessment that is exploring potential environmental and economic impacts of a proposed rate change. The change would revise the structure of wholesale electric power rates to better align wholesale rates with the underlying costs, to serve the 154 local power companies who serve TVA’s service territory. As proposed, the standard service energy rate would be reduced and a grid access charge would be established to recover the same amount. The anticipated result would be revenue neutral for TVA. To ensure a full range of issues are addressed, TVA invites members of the public, businesses, employees, environmental organizations and community leaders, as well as federal, state and local agencies, to comment on the proposed rate change , which can be viewed online at TVA’s website. The public comment period will end on April 9.
