Actions to Facilitate the Availability of ESCO Value-Added Offerings, ESCO Eligibility and ESCO Compliance
PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Procedure Act, NOTICE is hereby given of the following proposed rule:
Proposed Action:
The Commission is considering taking actions to facilitate the availability of ESCO value-added product and service offerings. The Commission is also considering changes to ESCO eligibility and to ensure ESCO compliance with Commission requirements.
Statutory authority:
Public Service Law, sections 5(1)(b) and 66(1)
Subject:
Actions to facilitate the availability of ESCO value-added offerings, ESCO eligibility and ESCO compliance.
Purpose:
To facilitate ESCO value-added offerings and to make changes to ESCO eligibility and to ensure ESCO compliance.
Substance of proposed rule:
On February 25, 2014, the Public Service Commission issued an Order Taking Actions to Improve the Residential and Small Non-Residential Retail Access Markets in Cases 12-M-0476, 98-M-1343, 06-M-0647 and 98-M-0667. Among other things, that Order posed a number of questions designed to identify additional actions that could facilitate the development of value-added product and service offerings for residential and small non-residential electric and natural gas customers. The Order also raised additional questions regarding changes to ESCO eligibility and to ensure ESCO compliance with Commission requirements. The Commission directed the Secretary to issue a notice seeking comment on these questions. That Notice was issued on February 25, 2014. The Commission is considering whether to take actions to facilitate the development of value-added products and service offerings for residential and small non-residential electric and natural gas customers, as well as make changes to its ESCO eligibility process and to ensure ESCO compliance with Commission requirements. The Commission may also address related matters.
