DB1/ 112775421.1 24
BEFORE THE PENNSYLVANIA PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION
PETITION OF PECO ENERGY COMPANY FOR APPROVAL OF ITS DEFAULT SERVICE PROGRAM FOR THE PERIOD FROM JUNE 1, 2021 THROUGH MAY 31, 2025
: : : : :
DOCKET NO. P-2020-
PETITION OF PECO ENERGY COMPANY
Pursuant to 66 Pa.C.S. § 2807(e) of the Pennsylvania Public Utility Code (“Code”), the
Default Service Regulations1 of the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (the
“Commission”) and the Commission’s Policy Statement on Default Service,2 PECO Energy
Company (“PECO” or the “Company”) hereby petitions the Commission for approval of its fifth
Default Service Program (“DSP V”), as set forth herein. PECO files this Petition in accordance
with its responsibilities as the default service provider for its certificated service territory for the
period from June 1, 2021 through May 31, 2025, following the expiration of its current default
service program (“DSP IV”).3 PECO requests that the Commission: (1) approve DSP V,
including its procurement plan, implementation plan, contingency plan, and associated
procurement documents and agreements for default service supply for all PECO customers who
do not take generation service from an alternative electric generation supplier (“EGS”) or who
contract for energy with an EGS which is not delivered; (2) approve the Company’s proposal to
1 52 Pa. Code §§ 54.181-54.190; see also Rulemaking Re Elec. Distribution Companies’ Obligation to Serve Retail Customers at the Conclusion of the Transition Period Pursuant to 66 Pa.C.S. § 2807(e)(2), Docket No. L-00040169 (Order entered May 10, 2007) (“First Default Service Rulemaking Order”); Implementation of Act 129 of October 15, 2008: Default Serv. and Retail Elec.

solicit new ten-year contracts for Solar Alternative Energy Credits (“Solar AECs”) to satisfy the
requirements of Pennsylvania’s Electricity Generation Customer Choice and Competition Act
(the “Competition Act”),4 as amended by Act 129 of 2008 (“Act 129”), and Alternative Energy
Portfolio Standards Act, 73 P.S. § 1643.1 et seq. (“AEPS” or “AEPS Act”); (3) approve NERA
Economic Consulting, Inc. (“NERA”) to continue as the independent third-party evaluator for
PECO’s default supply procurements; (4) approve PECO’s proposed default service rate design,
including PECO’s proposed time-of-use (“TOU”) rate options, and affirm PECO’s right to
recover all of its default service costs in accordance with 66 Pa.C.S. § 2807(e)(3.9); (5) grant a
waiver of the rate design provisions of 52 Pa. Code § 54.187, to the extent necessary; (6) find
that DSP V includes prudent steps necessary to negotiate favorable generation supply contracts;
(7) find that DSP V includes prudent steps necessary to obtain least-cost generation supply on a
long-term, short-term and spot market basis; (8) find that neither PECO nor its affiliates have
withheld from the market any generation supply in a manner that violates federal law; (9)
approve continuation of PECO’s existing EGS Standard Offer Program, including the associated
cost recovery mechanism approved in PECO’s prior default service proceedings; (10) approve
PECO’s proposed plan to facilitate shopping by low income customers enrolled in the
Company’s Customer Assistance Program (“CAP”) (the “CAP Shopping Plan” or “Plan”); and
(11) approve PECO’s proposed revised uniform Supply Master Agreement (“SMA”) and both
forms of the proposed Solar AEC Purchase and Sale Agreement as affiliated interest agreements
under 66 Pa.C.S. § 2102.
This is PECO’s fifth proposed program for default service under the Competition Act.
Under DSP IV, PECO continued to meet its default service obligations while fostering
4 66 Pa.C.S. §§ 2801-2812.
-3-
competition in retail electric markets by implementing hourly-priced default service for PECO’s
former “medium” commercial customers (100 kW to 500 kW peak demand), modifying cost
recovery mechanisms, and continuing certain retail market enhancements. In DSP V, PECO is
proposing to continue the existing and successful products and programs approved by the
Commission in DSP IV.
In accordance with the Competition Act, the Commission’s Default Service Regulations,
and the Default Service Policy Statement, DSP V is designed to enable PECO to obtain a
“prudent mix” of procurement contracts and thereby ensure that default service customers have
access to an adequate and reliable supply of generation at least cost over time. PECO therefore
requests that the Commission approve DSP V as requested herein and grant all other approvals
necessary so that PECO can implement DSP V on a timely basis for the benefit of its customers.
I. INTRODUCTION
1. PECO is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania with its principal office in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. PECO
provides electric delivery service to approximately 1.6 million customers.
2. As a Pennsylvania electric distribution company (“EDC”), PECO serves as
default service provider to retail electric customers within its service territory in accordance with
its obligations under Section 2807(e) of the Code (66 Pa.C.S. § 2807(e)). As a default service
provider, PECO provides electric generation service to those customers who do not select an
EGS or who return to default service after being served by an EGS that becomes unable or
unwilling to serve them. PECO’s current Commission-approved default service program expires
on May 31, 2021.
-4-
3. Under Sections 2807(e) (3.1) - (3.2) and (3.4) of the Competition Act, PECO is
required to obtain, through competitive procurement processes, a “prudent mix” of default
service supply contracts designed to ensure “adequate and reliable service” at the “least cost to
customers over time.” 66 Pa.C.S. § 2807(e)(3.7).
4. The AEPS Act requires default service providers like PECO to obtain specified
percentages of electricity sold to retail customers from alternative energy sources as measured by
alternative energy credits (“AECs”) and defined by the AEPS Act. The AEPS Act also includes
a “set-aside” that requires some of those AECs to be derived from solar photovoltaic (“PV”)
facilities. Under Act 40 of 2017 (“Act 40”), PECO must meet its future solar AEPS
requirements using Solar AECs generated from solar energy facilities in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania. During DSP V, PECO’s solar AEPS requirement will be 0.5% of its total default
service load.5
5. Section 54.185 of the Commission’s Default Service Regulations provides that a
default service provider should file a default service program with the Commission no later than
twelve months before its current default service program will expire. Pursuant to the Default
Service Regulations, such a default service program must include, inter alia: (1) a default
service procurement plan, which sets forth PECO’s strategy for procuring generation supply and
AEPS compliance; (2) an implementation plan identifying the schedule and other details of
PECO’s proposed competitive procurements for default supply, with forms of supplier
documents and agreements and an associated contingency plan; and (3) a rate design plan to
recover all reasonable costs of default service, which includes rates, rules and conditions of
service and revisions to its tariff. 52 Pa. Code § 54.185.
5 73 P.S. § 1648.3(b)(2)(xv).
-5-
6. In promulgating the Default Service Regulations and Policy Statement, the
Commission provided the following guidance for default service providers in designing a default
service program:
“In implementing default service standards, Act 129 requires that the Commission
be concerned about rate stability as well as other considerations such as ensuring
a ‘prudent mix’ of supply and ensuring safe and reliable service. See 66 Pa.C.S.
§§ 2807(e)(3.2), (3.4) and (7). In our view, a default service plan that meets the
‘least cost over time’ standard in Act 129 should not have, as its singular focus,
achieving the absolute lowest cost over the default service plan time frame but,
rather, a cost for power that is both adequate and reliable and also economical
relative to other options.”6
“The ‘least cost’ standard must give the [default service provider] sufficient
latitude to select contracts that constitute a ‘prudent mix’ which includes a
sufficient variety of products that adequately take into consideration price
volatility, changes in generation supply, customer usage characteristics and the
need to assure safe and reliable service.”7
7. In its Investigation of Pennsylvania’s Retail Electricity Market at Docket I-2011-
2237952, the Commission directed PECO and other default service providers to undertake a

variety of retail market enhancements and issued its proposed end state model for default
service.8
8. On February 26, 2019, the Commission entered an Order at Docket No. M-2019-
3007101 to initiate an investigation of potential opportunities to better reflect wholesale cost
causation in default service rates and incentivize customer behavior to lower peak demand. In
that proceeding, the Commission subsequently requested that EDCs address several topics in
upcoming default service program (“DSP”) filings.9 As described in PECO Exhibit JJM-2, those
topics include wholesale capacity and transmission cost allocation methodologies, TOU rates in
the context of electric vehicle expansion, intervals of adjustment of default service rates, CAP
customer shopping for generation service, and Standard Offer Program (“SOP”) scripting.
9. PECO is proposing three principal changes to its default service program and the
products previously approved by the Commission in DSP IV. First, PECO is proposing to
procure new Solar AEC contracts to replace PECO’s existing ten-year Solar AEC contracts
previously approved by the Commission that will have expired by the end of DSP IV. Second,
PECO is introducing new TOU default service rate options for eligible customers in PECO’s
Residential and Small Commercial procurement classes (the “TOU Rates”) to comply with
PECO’s obligation under Act 129 to offer TOU and real-time rates to all default service
customers with smart meters.10 Finally, PECO is proposing to permit CAP customers to shop for

PECO Statement No. 4 – Direct Testimony of Scott G. Fisher
Mr. Fisher is a Principal of the NorthBridge Group, an economic consulting firm. Mr. Fisher provides an expert evaluation of PECO’s proposed procurement plan as well as a review of “lessons learned” under the Company’s prior default service programs, which includes a quantitative analysis of the prices obtained in PECO’s previous default service supply solicitations.
11. In order to have sufficient time to undertake the competitive procurement process
to obtain default generation supplies for service on and after June 1, 2021 as described in this
Petition, PECO requests approval of DSP V by December 2020. Accordingly, PECO
respectfully requests that the Commission act upon this Petition on or before its scheduled
December 3, 2020 public meeting date.
II. PECO’S DEFAULT SERVICE PROCUREMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION PLANS
A. Procurement Classes, Program Term And Supply Portfolio
12. Under DSP IV, PECO conducts competitive procurements of wholesale power
and associated services for three different default service customer classes: (i) Residential
customers, (ii) Small Commercial customers with up to and including 100 kW of annual peak
demand and lighting customers; and (iii) Consolidated Large C&I customers whose annual peak
demand is greater than 100 kW. For DSP V, PECO is proposing to maintain the same
procurement groups, and thereby continue to reflect the nature of the load requirements of each
customer class and other factors, including the evolution of competitive markets and rate
stability.12
12 The Commission’s Default Service Regulations and Policy Statement provide that customers should be divided into three classes based upon peak load contributions of 0-25 kW, 25-500 kW, and 500 kW and above. See 52 Pa. Code §§ 54.187 & 69.1806. As Mr. McCawley explains in his testimony, the Commission has previously granted PECO a waiver from these regulations to implement a lower customer segmentation threshold for the Consolidated Large C&I class and appropriately separate smaller commercial customers from larger C&I customers who receive hourly-priced default service. In accordance with 52 Pa. Code § 54.185(g), PECO again
-9-
13. PECO’s DSP V encompasses default service procurement for the above classes
for the period beginning June 1, 2021 through May 31, 2025. A four-year term for default
service programs is permitted under the Commission’s Default Service Policy Statement, which
states that default service programs should be for two-year periods unless the Commission
directs otherwise.13 In the DSP IV Order (p. 35), the Commission noted that a four-year term
would minimize future litigation expenses and reduce administrative costs.
14. In light of its favorable experience to date, PECO proposes to maintain the
procurement strategy established in prior default service programs, which utilizes full
requirements, load-following products, as well as short time periods between the solicitation and
delivery of supply products.
15. A full requirements, load-following contract requires a supplier to provide energy,
capacity, ancillary services, and all other services or products necessary to serve a specified
percentage of default service load continuously over the term of the contract. Because the
contract is load-following, the amount of energy and other services and products a supplier must
provide will vary depending upon PECO’s actual default service load.
16. For the Residential Class, under DSP V, PECO proposes to continue to procure a
mix of one-year (approximately 38%) and two-year (approximately 61%) fixed-price full
requirements, load-following products. The remaining Residential Class load will be supplied
directly by PJM’s spot energy, capacity and ancillary service markets (approximately 1%).14 As
requests a waiver of the applicable provisions of the Default Service Regulations to continue combining default service procurement for PECO’s former “medium” commercial customers (101 kW to 500 kW peak demand) and “large” C&I customers (over 500 kW).
13 52 Pa. Code § 69.1804.
14 As explained by Mr. McCawley, PECO also receives an allocation of five megawatts of low-cost hydropower from the New York Power Authority (“NYPA”) for residential customers in PECO’s service territory under a
-10-
in DSP IV, each of the Residential Class products will be procured approximately two months
prior to the beginning of the applicable delivery period.
17. PECO proposes to continue to serve the Small Commercial class with equal
shares of one-year and two-year fixed-price full requirements products procured approximately
two months prior to delivery of the energy. As Mr. Fisher explains in PECO Statement No. 3,
this procurement strategy for the Small Commercial class provides price stability benefits for all
small non-residential customers who may not have the knowledge or resources to elect a
competitive EGS offering that provides the price stability they seek.
18. With respect to the Consolidated Large C&I class, PECO proposes to continue to
procure all default service supply through hourly-priced full requirements products on an annual
basis.
19. DSP V includes some Residential and Small Commercial class supply products
with delivery periods that extend beyond May 31, 2021 (the end of the DSP V period). The
extension of contracts beyond the term of a default service program is permitted by the
Commission’s regulations and is consistent with the procurement design approved by the
Commission in DSP II, DSP III and DSP IV. See 52 Pa. Code § 54.186(b)(4) (“Procurement
plans may include solicitations and contracts whose durations extend beyond the program
period.”). The laddering of contract delivery periods (extending beyond May 31, 2021) will
better ensure that customers are not fully exposed to the potential wholesale price volatility
associated with replacing a large portion of default service supply in a short period.
multi-state agreement administered in Pennsylvania by Allegheny Electric Cooperative, Inc. This amount corresponds to 0.2% of PECO’s Residential default service load. Under DSP V, PECO will continue to use the NYPA allocation to offset the amount of Residential default service supply provided by wholesale suppliers.
-11-
20. During PECO’s first two default service programs, load serving entities (“LSEs”),
including EGSs, were responsible for transmission costs charged by PJM Interconnection, L.L.C.
(“PJM”), including Generation Deactivation/Reliability Must Run (“RMR”) charges, Expansion
Cost Recovery charges and Transmission Enhancement (a/k/a Regional Transmission Expansion
Plan or “RTEP”) charges. In approving PECO’s third default service program, the Commission
concluded that certain PJM transmission-related charges should be recovered from customers on
a non-bypassable basis.15 Consistent with that finding, on June 1, 2015, PECO implemented a
Non-Bypassable Transmission Charge (“NBT”) to recover the following PJM charges from all
distribution customers in PECO’s service territory: Generation Deactivation/RMR charges (PJM
bill line 1930) set after December 4, 2014; RTEP charges (PJM bill lines 1108 and 1115); and
Expansion Cost Recovery charges (PJM bill line 1730). During DSP V, PECO will also
continue to be responsible for and will recover Network Integration Transmission Service and
Non-Firm Point-to-Point Transmission costs through its unbundled, bypassable TSC.
21. As Mr. Fisher explains, the overall mix of products for each procurement class
shown in the table below satisfies the Public Utility Code’s “prudent mix” requirement.
15 See Petition of PECO Energy Co. for Approval of Its Default Serv. Program for the Period from June 1, 2015 through May 31, 2017, Docket No. P-2014-2409362 (Order entered Dec. 4, 2014), p. 46.
-12-
Residential Small Commercial Consolidated Large
Commercial and Industrial
Approximately 99% of the load is supplied by a mix of products in the following proportions:
o Approximately 38% 1-year fixed-price full requirements (“FPFR”) products with delivery periods that overlap on a semi-annual basis
o Approximately 61% 2-year FPFR products with delivery periods that overlap on a semi-annual basis
The other approximately 1% of the load will be supplied by spot purchases
All products are procured approximately two months before delivery of the product begins
50% 1-year FPFR products
50% 2-year FPFR products
Delivery periods overlap on a semi-annual basis
All products are procured approximately two months before delivery of the product begins
100% spot-priced full requirements products, with 1-year delivery periods
All products are procured approximately two months before delivery of the product begins
22. Each seller of full requirements default service supply will deliver a percentage of
PECO’s default service load pursuant to the terms of the SMA. As envisioned by the
Commission in the End State Order, PECO is proposing to continue to use the uniform SMA
developed through the Office of Competitive Market Oversight (“OCMO”) SMA stakeholder
process, which has functioned well during DSP IV, with one modification described by Mr.
McCawley. Specifically, PECO is proposing to require each wholesale supplier to submit the
information required in PECO’s annual report to the PUC on default service16 to the Company
for the energy supplied under the SMA.
B. Competitive Bid Solicitation Process And Independent Evaluator
23. As described by Mr. McCawley, PECO intends to solicit bids for default service
supply beginning in February 2021. PECO’s proposed solicitations extend over the DSP V term
16 52 Pa. Code § 54.39; see also id. at § 54.6 (requiring default service providers to file the annual licensing report required by Section 54.39 of the Commission’s EGS licensing regulations that provides information on default supply generation sources).
-13-
and are intended to avoid problems associated with procuring significant amounts of supply at a
single point in time when prices may be highest.
24. Consistent with DSP IV, all bids for default service supply will be obtained
through a fair, non-discriminatory, and competitive request for proposals (“RFP”) process
conducted by an independent third-party evaluator, and PECO proposes to retain NERA in this
independent evaluator role for DSP V. In his testimony, Mr. McCawley describes the RFP rules
for DSP V developed by NERA, which are the same as those now used by PECO in its DSP IV
procurements.17 Mr. McCawley also discusses PECO’s proposal to maintain the DSP IV “load
cap” so that no supplier will be permitted to provide more than 50% of the default supply for any
one of PECO’s procurement classes at any point in time during DSP V.
25. As Mr. McCawley explains, PECO’s proposed competitive procurement process
complies with the Commission’s codes of conduct and includes protocols to ensure that PECO’s
wholesale generation affiliates do not receive an advantage in the bidding process or any other
aspect of PECO’s default service implementation plan. As with PECO’s prior default service
programs and in order to permit the participation of wholesale generation affiliates of PECO in
its default supply competitive procurements (as allowed by Section 54.186(b)(6) of the Default
Service Regulations, 52 Pa. Code § 54.186(b)(6)), PECO also respectfully requests that the
Commission approve the revised uniform SMA as an affiliated interest agreement under 66
Pa.C.S. § 2102.
17 The RFP Rules proposed by PECO include non-material modifications suggested by the Independent Evaluator over the course of the DSP IV procurement cycle to facilitate competition and improve bidder participation in accordance with Section I.1.12 of the RFP Rules.
-14-
C. Consistency With Regional Transmission Organization Requirements
26. In accordance with the Default Service Regulations, PECO’s DSP V is also
“consistent with the legal and technical requirements pertaining to the generation, sale and
transmission of electricity of the [regional transmission organization] in whose control area the
DSP is providing service.” 52 Pa. Code § 54.185(e)(4). As explained by Mr. McCawley,
PECO’s SMA will continue to impose requirements on both PECO and its suppliers to maintain
specific qualifications under applicable PJM agreements and rules, as well as all other regulatory
authorizations (including those of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) necessary to
perform all contractual obligations. Furthermore, suppliers seeking to bid to provide default
service generation must be able to establish that they can fulfill all technical and regulatory
requirements of the SMA, including demonstrating that there is no impediment to becoming an
LSE under PJM’s rules.
D. AEPS Compliance
27. As Mr. McCawley describes in his testimony, PECO will continue to satisfy its
AEPS obligations with respect to sales to default service customers by requiring each full
requirements default service supplier to transfer Tier I (including solar PV) and Tier II AECs to
PECO corresponding to PECO’s AEPS obligations associated with the amount of default service
load served by that supplier. In addition, PECO will continue to allocate AECs obtained through
its AEC procurements to suppliers in accordance with the peak load of each customer class and
the percentage of load served by each supplier.
28. In DSP IV, all procurement classes are allocated Solar Tier I AECs from PECO’s
long-term ten-year Solar AEC purchase agreements. In total, PECO has been purchasing 8,000
Solar Tier I AECs annually from various agreements that will expire on May 31, 2020 or May
-15-
31, 2021. In light of PECO’s prior successful Solar AEC procurement in 2009 and potential
future supply shortfalls related to Act 40’s in-state requirements, PECO is proposing two annual
solicitations in the first two years of the DSP V term for delivery of a total of 16,000 Solar AECs
(i.e., 8,000 Solar AECs in each solicitation in 2021 and 2022). This amount of Solar AECs is
expected to meet approximately 25% of PECO’s increased solar AEPS requirements under DSP
V. PECO is also proposing to procure up to half of each year’s Solar AEC amount from solar
generating facilities located within its service territory consistent with a variety of stakeholder
goals, including the City of Philadelphia.
29. As explained by Mr. McCawley, the first stage of the RFP will consist of a
competitive procurement where the winning bidders will be determined by lowest Solar AEC
prices offered. The second stage will be a Standard Offer to Purchase (“SOTP”) Solar AECs at a
competitive price determined by the first stage RFP, with the requirement that the Solar AECs
from stage two bidders come from solar generation resources located in the PECO service area.
All bidders must be owners of solar PV systems, or own the rights to Solar AECs generated by
such systems, and such systems must be physically located within Pennsylvania. Both existing
solar PV systems that have achieved commercial operation and solar PV projects under
development are eligible to participate. These include grid-connected and net-metered solar PV
systems. All systems must be qualified as Tier I solar PV alternative energy systems and all
deliveries of Solar AECs to PECO must be made through the Generation Attribute Tracking
System operated by PJM Environmental Information Services, Inc. Entities who can aggregate
Solar AECs from multiple parties (“Aggregators”) will be permitted to participate in both the
RFP and SOTP.
-16-
30. For both the RFP and SOTP stage, PECO will use a two-part, competitive bid
process in which bidders are first qualified and then permitted to submit a bid with an offer to
deliver a specific amount of Solar AECs annually, subject to a minimum bid amount (200 AECs
per year). Consistent with the competitive procurement process PECO is currently using for
Solar Tier I AECs, an independent, third-party RFP monitor (“RFP Monitor”) will participate
throughout the entire procurement process. The Commission will have ten days for review and
approval of the final results for each stage one RFP. If an RFP bid is accepted and approved, the
winning bidder will be required to enter into the Solar AEC Purchase and Sale Agreement with
PECO.18
31. Upon completion of the first solar RFP each year, PECO will publish the average
winning bid received in the RFP. This average winning bid price will be the price for the SOTP
procurement stage. For the SOTP procurement, the RFP Monitor will accept bidder applications
on a first-come, first-served basis and qualify each bidder. Once the RFP Monitor has a
sufficient list of companies, or after 90 days (whichever comes first), the RFP Monitor will
submit the list of bidders with their qualifications to the Commission for a 10-day review period.
PECO will execute a purchase agreement with each qualified and approved bidder up to the
numerical limit of Solar AECs for that procurement.
III. CONTINGENCY PLANS
32. In accordance with the Default Service Regulations (52 Pa. Code § 54.185(e)(5)),
PECO is proposing to use the same contingency plan approved by the Commission in DSP IV to
address the possibility that PECO does not obtain sufficient supply through its procurement
18 The Solar RFP includes two forms of the Solar Alternative Energy Credit Purchase and Sale Agreement that PECO will execute with each successful bidder (a Project Version and an Aggregator Version).
-17-
processes or experiences a supplier default under the SMA. In the event PECO fails to obtain
approved bids for all offered tranches in a solicitation, the unfilled tranches will be included in
PECO’s next scheduled default supplier solicitation for that product. If necessary, PECO will
supply any unserved portion of its default service load from the PJM-administered markets for
energy, capacity and ancillary services. If the supplier default occurs within a reasonable time
before a scheduled procurement, the load served by the defaulting supplier will be incorporated
into that next procurement. Otherwise, PECO will file a plan with the Commission proposing
alternative procurement options and a request for approval on an expedited basis.
33. In the event that PECO’s proposed 2021 procurement for Solar AECs is
unsuccessful or there is insufficient participant interest, the amount of solar AECs not under
contract will be added to the amount procured in the 2022 procurement process. If PECO is
unable to obtain its full 16,000 Solar AECs after completing the 2021 and the 2022
procurements, any shortfall will be met by wholesale suppliers who are obligated to transfer
enough Solar AECs to meet AEPS requirements for the percentage of default service load that
they supply under the SMA.
IV. RATE DESIGN AND COST RECOVERY
A. Generation Supply Adjustment
34. The default service rate for each of PECO’s procurement classes consists of a
generation (GSA) and transmission (TSC) component. The GSA currently recovers generation
supply costs, AEPS compliance costs, and ancillary service costs. The GSA also includes
administrative cost and working capital factors. The TSC recovers certain PJM charges for
transmission service PECO acquires on behalf of default service customers. The GSA and TSC
-18-
form the basis of the PTC that customers may use to evaluate competitive generation service
offerings.
35. Under DSP IV, PECO adjusts its default service rates each quarter, with semi-
annual reconciliation of the over/undercollection component of the GSA (the “E-Factor”). In
accordance with the January 2020 Secretarial Letter, PECO assessed the benefits presented by
both a three-month and six-month default supply price projection period in the context of the
Company’s PTC history. Based on this assessment, PECO believes its current approach
appropriately balances the responsiveness of the PTC to current market conditions and
fluctuations caused by billing cycle lag.
36. In DSP V, PECO proposes to maintain the same rate design approved by the
Commission in DSP IV with the addition of new, optional TOU Rates for the Residential and
Small Commercial Classes described in Section IV.B. below.
37. PECO also requests that the Commission expressly affirm PECO’s right to full
and current recovery of all costs to implement DSP V in accordance with 66 Pa.C.S. §
2807(e)(3.9).
B. Time-Of-Use Rate Options
38. In 2014, PECO offered a TOU generation rate through a PUC-approved one-year
pilot program known as the “PECO Smart Time Pricing Pilot” (“Pilot”) described by Mr. Bisti.19
19 Petition of PECO Energy Co. for Approval of its Initial Dynamic Pricing and Customer Acceptance Plan, Docket No. M-2009-2123944, (Order entered Apr. 15, 2011) (“Dynamic Pricing Order”); Petition of PECO Energy Co. for Expedited Approval of its Dynamic Pricing Plan Vendor Selection and Dynamic Pricing Plan Supplement, Docket No. P-2012-2297304 (Opinion and Order entered Sept. 26, 2012) (approving modifications to the commodity supply, dynamic rate structure, size and term of the pilot approved in the Dynamic Pricing Order to enable an EGS to provide TOU supply in lieu of PECO).
-19-
For DSP V, PECO is proposing new TOU Rates for the Residential and Small Commercial
Classes consistent with Commission guidance on TOU rate design.20
39. As described by Mr. Bisti, the Company’s TOU Rates reflect a balance of the
following objectives: (1) simplicity and the value proposition for customer enrollment; (2) cost-
causation principles to connect the TOU pricing structure to wholesale markets and PECO’s
standard, non-time varying GSA; and (3) incentives for customer EV adoption. The key features
of PECO’s proposed TOU Rates are discussed below and in more detail in Mr. Bisti’s direct
testimony.
1. TOU Product Structure and Rate Design
40. The TOU Rates will differentiate prices across three periods (peak, off-peak and
super off-peak) that are constant throughout the year based on price multipliers designed to
motivate shifting of usage from the higher-cost peak period to lower-cost off-peak periods.
Under the Company’s proposed rate design, eligible default service customer will pay a
discounted rate for off-peak usage and a higher rate for peak usage relative to PECO’s standard
fixed-price GSA.
20 Since the conclusion of the Pilot, the scope of an EDC’s obligation to offer TOU rates to default service customers was the subject of litigation before the Commission and Commonwealth Court. See Petition of PPL Elec. Utils. Corp. for Approval of a New Pilot Time-of-Use Program, Docket No. P-2013-2389572 (Order entered Sept. 11, 2014) (holding that Act 129 did not require PPL Electric Utilities Corp. (“PPL”) to offer TOU rates directly to customer-generators); Dauphin Cty. Indus. Dev. Auth. v. Pa. P.U.C., 123 A.3d 1124, 1136 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2015) (“DCIDA”) (holding that Act 129 does not authorize default service providers to delegate the obligation to offer TOU rates to customers with smart meters to EGSs); Petition of PPL Elec. Utils. Corp. for Approval of a New Pilot Time-of-Use Program, Docket Nos. P-2013-2389572 and M-2016-2578051 (Secretarial Letter issued Apr. 6, 2017) (“April 2017 Secretarial Letter”) (proposing a TOU design for PPL in accordance with the DCIDA decision and noting that the proposed TOU design “may provide future guidance to all EDCs” for incorporation into their own TOU proposals in their individual default service proceedings).
-20-
41. PECO’s proposed time-differentiated pricing usage periods shown in Table 1
below reasonably encompass the Company’s expected system peak usage times and take into
account the need for simplicity to encourage customer enrollment.
Table 1
TOU Pricing Period Year-Round Days/Hours Included
Peak 2 p.m. – 6 p.m.
Monday Through Friday, excluding PJM holidays
Super Off-Peak Midnight (12 a.m.) – 6 a.m.
Every day
Off-Peak All other hours
PECO defined the peak period as 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. on non-holiday weekdays based on PJM’s
PECO zonal load data and energy prices over a five-year historic period (2014-2018).
Consistent with the January 2020 Secretarial Letter, PECO’s proposed TOU Rates include a
super off-peak pricing period from 12 a.m. to 6 a.m. every day to encourage EV charging during
overnight low-priced energy hours based on PECO’s system load patterns. These TOU pricing
periods will be identical for the Residential and Small Commercial Classes.
42. PECO is proposing to set the TOU price multipliers for each procurement class
shown in Table 2 below. These multipliers will remain constant during the DSP V term. As
explained by Mr. Bisti, these multipliers reflect the ratios calculated from average PJM PECO
zone spot market prices as well as the cost of capacity during peak and off-peak hours. PECO is
proposing to allocate the cost of capacity to peak and off-peak hours only to send cost-based
-21-
price signals and create larger price differentials that are more likely to motivate customers to
adjust the time of day they use electricity.

Peak 6.5 5.1
Super Off-Peak 1 1
Off-Peak 1.5 1.7
*Ratio to super off-peak TOU price
43. PECO will source both the standard and TOU default service for residential and
small commercial customers from the same supply portfolio for each procurement class. As Mr.
McCawley and Mr. Fisher explain, any effects of TOU default service on supplier prices should
be small given the expected small level of participation relative to the overall default service
customer base and the lack of revenue risk to suppliers (who will be paid the same price for a
megawatt-hour of default service supply for customers on standard default service and those on
TOU default service). PECO will use the standard GSA as the reference price for PECO’s TOU
rate calculations.
44. PECO will calculate the super off-peak price to provide a discount from the
standard GSA price in a way that offsets the higher peak and off-peak period prices and ensures
revenue neutrality. The revenue neutral super off-peak price for each procurement class will be
derived from the portion of total system kWh usage attributable to each TOU pricing period.
PECO determined these percentages based on PJM energy market settlements over the most
-22-
recent historical five-year period (2014-2018). The peak and off-peak TOU prices are a factor of
multiplying the super off-peak price by the multiplier for the applicable procurement class and
TOU pricing period.
45. The TOU Rates will be calculated on a quarterly basis, synchronized with the
GSA adjustment periods for the Residential and Small Commercial Classes, using PECO’s
proposed pricing methodology. TOU customer kWh sales and costs will be included in the semi-
annual reconciliation of the over/undercollection component of the GSA for the entire
procurement class (i.e., Residential or Small Commercial). PECO’s proposed reconciliation
process using a single E-Factor for each procurement class will help mitigate potential large
swings in GSA over/undercollections that could arise if customers switch between PECO’s
standard default service rate and TOU default service rate.
2. Customer Eligibility
46. Consistent with the April 2017 Secretarial Letter, PECO’s TOU Rates will be
available to residential and small commercial default service customers with smart meters
configured to measure energy consumption in watt-hours. However, PECO is proposing to
exclude CAP customers from the residential TOU Rate at this time to avoid potential adverse
impacts on CAP benefits.
47. Eligible default service customers may enroll in PECO’s TOU Rates online or
through the Company’s care center. Participating customers will remain on the TOU Rate until
they affirmatively elect to return to PECO’s standard default service rate, switch to an EGS or
otherwise become ineligible.
-23-
48. Customers who select the TOU Rate may leave at any time without incurring
related penalties or fees. However, if those customers subsequently leave the TOU Rate for any
reason, they may not re-enroll for twelve billing months after switching off the TOU Rate.
3. Net Metering Customers
49. In accordance with the April 2017 Secretarial Letter, customer-generators, with
the exception of virtual net metering customers, will be eligible for the TOU Rates.
50. As explained by Mr. Bisti, PECO will separately track net excess generation
created by TOU net metering customers within the TOU peak, off-peak and super off-peak
periods. During any month when a TOU net metering customer consumes more power than it
generates, the excess generation in the applicable TOU rate period will be used to reduce or
offset the customer’s bill at the full retail rate, including the current TOU prices for generation,
consistent with the Commission’s guidance in the April 2017 Secretarial Letter. At the end of
the PJM planning period on May 31 of each year, PECO will compensate TOU net metering
customers for accumulated excess generation based on the applicable TOU rate and TSC in
effect at the time the excess electricity was generated.
4. Implementation Plan and Cost Recovery
51. Mr. Bisti’s testimony discusses PECO’s communications plan to inform
customers about the new TOU Rates and update enrolled TOU customers about the opportunity
for bill savings. This plan includes a webpage dedicated to the TOU Rates, a variety of other
customer education materials, and monthly e-mail communications to enrolled TOU customers.
52. PECO estimates that it will require at least twelve months to implement the final
TOU rate design approved by the PUC in this proceeding. PECO proposes to recover the costs
-24-
to implement the new TOU rates totaling approximately $3.8 million from customers through the
administrative cost factor of the GSA as described by Mr. Bisti.
V. RETAIL MARKET ENHANCEMENTS
53. During DSP II, DSP III and DSP IV, PECO implemented a variety of programs to
support EGSs and expand retail choice. These programs include PECO’s EGS purchase of
receivables program, the Company’s Standard Offer Program, enhanced customer account
number access for EGSs, and accelerated (three-day) switching.
A. Standard Offer Program
54. As described by Ms. Reilly, since June 1, 2017, the Standard Offer Program has
resulted in over 26,000 residential customer and 500 small commercial customer referrals to
EGSs that have voluntarily chosen to offer customers a twelve-month contract priced at 7%
below PECO’s default service rate at the time of the offer. Consistent with the January 2020
Secretarial Letter (p. 10), PECO reviewed its current SOP customer scripts produced from the
PUC-approved settlement of the DSP IV proceeding and concluded that the scripts reasonably
present the SOP to customers and incorporate appropriate customer protections.
55. PECO proposes to continue offering its existing Standard Offer Program from
June 1, 2021 through May 31, 2025. Consistent with PECO’s current tariff, the Company further
proposes to continue to recover Standard Offer Program costs through an EGS participant fee of
$30 per enrolled customer, with any remaining costs recovered in the following manner: (1) fifty
percent from EGSs through a Purchase of Receivables discount; and (2) fifty percent from
residential and small commercial default service customers via the GSA.
-25-
B. CAP Shopping Plan
56. In accordance with the universal service obligations set forth in the Public Utility
Code, PECO’s CAP assists low income customers in PECO’s service territory through
discounted energy bills. PECO’s CAP is a special rate rider for customers with an annual
household gross income level at or below 150% of the poverty level established under Federal
law. Approximately 111,000 residential customers in PECO’s service territory – almost 7% of
all PECO residential electric customers – participate in the CAP. CAP customers receive a fixed
bill credit each year for the utility service they receive based on their ability to pay regardless of
the actual amount of their utility bill. The annual cost of the fixed credits provided to CAP
customers not recovered in base rates (referred to as the “CAP shortfall”) is recovered from all
residential customers through PECO’s Universal Service Fund Charge (“USFC”).
57. PECO’s CAP customers are not currently eligible to purchase electric generation
supply from an EGS. In accordance with the Commission’s direction in its Proposed Policy
Statement Order,21 PECO’s Plan will facilitate shopping by CAP customers during DSP V.
58. An EGS serving residential customers in PECO’s service territory will have the
opportunity to enroll CAP customers and provide them with electric generation service, subject
to the Plan requirements summarized below and discussed in detail in Ms. Reilly’s direct
testimony.
21 The CAP shopping requirements outlined in the Proposed Policy Statement Order (pp. 5, 9-10) include: (1) a CAP shopping product rate at or below the EDC’s PTC for the duration of the contract; (2) a prohibition in EGS-CAP customer contracts against fees unrelated to the provision of electric generation service, including early termination and cancellation fees; and (3) the following options for CAP customers upon expiration of the current contract period: enter into another contract with their existing EGS with the same CAP protections, switch to another supplier offering a contract with the same CAP protections, or return to default service.
-26-
59. First, consistent with the Proposed Policy Statement Order, a participating EGS
(a “CAP Supplier”) must charge CAP customers a rate for generation service that is at or below
the PECO PTC for residential customers. This will ensure that the affordability of service will
be preserved and avoids higher costs for the residential customers that fund the program. EGSs
serving CAP customers also may not enter into contracts that impose early cancellation and
termination fees or other fees unrelated to generation service. This prohibition ensures that the
overall rate charged to a CAP customer does not exceed PECO’s PTC.
60. Second, EGSs must electronically submit a notice of intent to participate or
discontinue participation as a CAP Supplier (a “CAP Notice”), at least ten days before the start
of the calendar month. EGSs that execute a CAP Notice must agree to comply with all Plan
requirements, including pricing limitations for CAP customers.
61. Third, CAP Suppliers must use PECO’s “bill-ready” EDC consolidated billing for
all shopping CAP customers. The use of EDC consolidated billing will allow the Company to
ensure that each customer’s CAP benefits are properly applied to customer charges and track
information regarding CAP customers to meet its on-going obligations to the Commission with
respect to universal service programs, including reporting on cost effectiveness and affordability.
62. Fourth, CAP Suppliers must publish their CAP rates on PAPowerSwitch.com and
in a customer mailing (upon a customer’s request via EGS call centers) to promote rate
transparency and help simplify the shopping process for CAP customers.
63. Finally, CAP Suppliers must comply with the Plan’s contract expiration and
change notice procedures described by Ms. Reilly. In accordance with the Proposed Policy
Statement Order, CAP customers will have the following options at the end of the contract term:
-27-
renew the contract with their existing EGS at a new Plan-compliant CAP rate, switch to another
supplier offering a Plan-compliant CAP rate or return to default service.
64. As part of the Plan, the Company will implement a variety of customer education
initiatives focused on the CAP rate protections that must be included in CAP customer-EGS
contracts, the impact of shopping on CAP benefits, and tools to help CAP customers understand
and manage their energy bills. As described by Ms. Reilly, these initiatives will utilize a broad
range of communication methods, including PECO’s call center, mailings, customer outreach
efforts, web support, community workshops and advocate-sponsored events for low income
customers.
65. PECO’s existing electronic data interchange protocol includes data elements that
identify PECO’s CAP customers that will allow EGSs to tailor products and service options for
those customers in accordance with the Plan. Under the Plan, PECO will continue its current
communication practices related to quarterly changes to the residential PTC and will provide
information regarding Plan rules and procedures through PECO’s supplier bulletins and EGS
coordination web portal.
66. After Plan implementation, PECO will continue its Commission-approved
method of calculating the CAP credit amount using a twelve-month look-back period. During
the initial year that the CAP customer shops, the CAP credit will be calculated using PECO’s
PTC in effect for the twelve-month period being examined. Thereafter, the fixed bill credit for
shopping CAP customers will be calculated based on EGS charges.
67. The Company will require one year to implement the proposed Plan. PECO
estimates that the Plan implementation costs will approximate $1.2 million. The costs fall into
two categories. The first category (i.e., approximately $500,000) is related to the customer
-28-
education initiatives described above. PECO is proposing to recover the costs associated with
the customer education initiatives from residential customers in the current Customer Education
Charge (“CEC”) approved by the Commission in Docket No. P-2011-2279773. The second
category (i.e., approximately $0.7 million) is related to training and IT changes to the Company’s
billing and customer information system to facilitate CAP shopping and to appropriately
calculate the CAP fixed credit amount. Those costs will be recovered in a subsequent base rate
case.
68. Considering the projected expense and outreach to CAP customers, PECO
proposes to begin the one-year implementation period after approval of the Plan and following
receipt of CAP Notices from at least five EGSs. While CAP Notices are not binding, the receipt
of at least five CAP Notices will ensure that there is verifiable EGS interest in serving CAP
customers in PECO’s service territory.
