Decision on review of 2018-2022 Performance-Based Regulation (PBR) for ATCO Gas and ATCO Electric

In proceeding 28300, the Alberta Utilities Commission (the Commission) determined that it will reopen the 2018-2022 PBR term (PBR2) of ATCO Gas and ATCO electric (collectively referred to as ATCO). The Commission found specifically within the years of 2021 and 2022 the PBR plan did not operate as intended. This created rates that were not just and reasonable within those years for consumers along with rates of return achieved by ATCO that exceeded the approved amount. The Commission will therefore reopen PBR2 but will only focus on 2021 and 2022. [1]
