Fallout from energy deregulation continues
Californians hit by sharp rise in electricity rates
By Gerardo Nebbia 26 May 2001 Use this version to print Send this link by email On May 15 the California State Public Utility Commission (PUC) approved a sharp increase in retail electricity prices, which will result in most consumers paying between 12 and 47 percent higher rates. Beginning in June, residents and businesses in the state will pay $5.7 billion more for electricity in what amounts to a further bailout of the utility giants who pushed for the deregulation of the state's energy market. In addition to the devastating effect this will have on working people, senior citizens and the poor, agricultural firms can expect to see 20 percent increases, small businesses will see an average 37 percent hike and industrial users anticipate an increase of 49 percent. This will result in a chain reaction of higher prices for consumer goods, small business bankruptcies and the loss of tens of thousands of jobs as businesses trim costs to meet higher operating expenses. By some estimates, 135,000 workers will be sacked as a consequence of higher energy costs to industry, as well as the expected blackouts that will hit the state this summer as energy usage peaks.

Big business was able to gain concessions from the PUC in the form of a rate cap, set at approximately 12 cents per kilowatt-hour, beyond which their rates will not be allowed to rise. Representatives from large corporations have been applying pressure to the PUC in an attempt to reduce the proportion of the total increase to be paid by the industrial and corporate sectors in comparison to the amounts outlined in earlier plans.

Energy deregulation jolts prices in Texas By David Lazarus
San Francisco Chronicle Staff Writer
Tuesday, August 7, 2001 Texas, staring into the same energy abyss that swallowed California, struggled to find its way yesterday as wholesale electricity prices spiked sharply higher. In the past week, prices have swung wildly as the Lone Star State test- drives deregulation measures set to be introduced on a broader scale in January. Shmuel Oren, a professor of industrial engineering at the University of California at Berkeley who is advising Texas authorities, said the price spikes show that the Texas energy market is not yet ready for full deregulation. "You need precautions for when markets fail," he said. Oren added that, in light of the price volatility since Texas began experimenting with deregulation last week, he will recommend a series of measures to smooth out the bidding process and prevent individual power companies from pushing wholesale prices through the roof. Still, it is unlikely that Texas will end up following California's lead in begging for help from President Bush and federal energy regulators. The state already enjoys a surplus of power and has more plants on the way.

http://news-service.stanford.edu/news/2001/october24/energy-1024.html
Stanford Report, October 24, 2001 Panelists maintain support of energy deregulation, criticize Gov. Davis BY ETIENNE BENSON Deregulation of the energy market is still a good idea for California despite last year's crisis, argued experts at a two-day conference at Stanford last week. "We need a system in which the private sector is dominant, not the public sector," said Jim Sweeney, expressing a sentiment shared by many conference participants. Sweeney is director of the Energy, Natural Resources and the Environment Program at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research (SIEPR), senior fellow at the Hoover Institution and professor of management science and engineering at Stanford. "The state should not be in the business of producing and selling energy," agreed Milton Friedman, senior research fellow at the Hoover Institution and Nobel laureate in economics. The conference was co-sponsored by the Hoover Institution and SIEPR. Participants from academia, politics and business discussed the causes of the California energy crisis, its impact on the economy, the relationship between politics and power production, and lessons learned from California's experience with deregulation. U.S. Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham also spoke on the importance of energy for national security.

Introduction
This initiative repeals key provisions of the 1996 electricity deregulation and restores authority to regulate rates to the California Public Utilities Commission (PUC). In addition it requires that 20 percent of electricity be from renewable sources by 2010.
Energy Regulation and Deregulation in California
Efforts by the federal government to open up energy markets to more independent power producers have been underway since the energy crises of the 1970s. In the 1990s the CPUC joined this trend to liberalize regulatory policy. As electricity prices rose, the PUC worked with the legislature to craft the 1996 Assemby Bill 1890 energy-deregulation measure.

Following the nationwide trend to promote lower prices through competition, the State of New York is deregulating natural gas and electricity. In June 1998, pursuant to a procedure orchestrated by the Public Service Commission (PSC), the deregulation of electricity will begin in New York City with a pilot program designed to encourage customers to buy up to 500,000 megawatts of electricity from independent sources. Energy Service Companies, called ESCOs, will aggregate the purchasing power of many clients, making it possible for even the smallest customers to participate. Those interested must commit to this program during April 1998, and, since it is impossible to predict the level of interest, provision is made for a lottery to select participants if the pilot is oversubscribed. Cover of Con Ed Pamphlet Con Edison has described this opportunity fully in an insert with all March bills (click here or on the photo at right to link to full text of the pamphlet); its TV commercial has a postman alerting customers to read this brochure, which offers an incentive to customers who leave Con Edison and commit to purchasing their electricity from an independent ESCO.

In June, 1998, pursuant to a procedure orchestrated by the Public Service Commission, a five-year march towards deregulation of electricity begin in New York City with a pilot program which enabled customers to begin buying electricity from independent sources. To ensure the success of the initial phase, incentive payments helped persuade individuals to take part in that program. A second round of deregulation begins on April 1, 1999, when an additional 65,000 customers using 1,000 megawatts of power will be able to purchase electricity from suppliers other than Con Edison. Customers who applied for deregulated power in 1998 and were not selected are considered priority applicants; they are guaranteed acceptance if they reapply in January 1999. Others interested in being included must apply between January 4 and February 12, 1999. Deregulation gives customers the option of purchasing electricity and gas from an independent energy service company (ESCO) and a gas marketer. These entities are not regulated, but the Public Service Commission determines their eligibility to sell in New York. However, the PSC cannot mediate any disputes between customer and their energy providers.

    By DAN MORGAN
    Washington Post
    WASHINGTON Undeterred by the collapse of energy trader Enron Corp., congressional advocates of deregulation plan to press ahead with legislation to encourage a further expansion of the wholesale electricity market pioneered and subsequently dominated by the crippled Houston company. Senate sources said Friday that a major energy bill to be introduced this week by Majority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D., will contain provisions that support a widening of the competitive electricity trading system, which is intended to promote efficiency and stable prices. ADVERTISEMENT The goal is to help merchant companies such as Enron buy power where it is plentiful and cheap and ship it over borrowed transmission lines to customers in areas where supplies are tight or prices are rising.

    Understanding Demand Charges
    A demand charge covers the costs associated with maintaining sufficient electrical distribution infrastructure at all times to meet each customer's highest demand for energy. It is based on the greatest amount of electricity used by the customer in any 15-30 minute period during the billing cycle. The demand charge is expressed as a dollar per kilowatt (kW) rate and is applied to the customer's maximum kW demand, or the highest rate at which the customer required energy during the month. Most utilities customarily average a customer's instantaneous demands over 15-30 minute intervals throughout the month. Consequently, a customer's monthly demand is typically the highest 15-30 minutes of energy use during a billing cycle. Energy Deregulation - What is it and Why is it Happening?

    Abstract
    Joining an ever-growing number of states that have passed similar legislation, and its neighbor Pennsylvania, which was one of the first states in the nation to introduce electric retail competition, Ohio stands poised to be one of the most active and viable competitive electricity retail markets in the nation. As we noted in a previous Report, "Energy Retail Competition: A Report on the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania," Pennsylvania seems to have gotten its restructuring legislation right, and from a competitive standpoint, the market created by state restructuring is "as good as it gets." Since Ohio might be one of the areas of the United States with significant growth, the state could give its Atlantic neighbor a run for their money as far as electric competition is concerned.

    http://www.post-gazette.com/energy/states.asp
    Pennsylvania is ahead of the game By Ken Zapinski, Post-Gazette Staff Writer State regulators have been feeling pretty good as of late, saying that Pennsylvania has done better than any other state in opening its electric market to competition. That pride is warranted, according to industry experts. Other places have tried, but none have succeeded as well as the Keystone State. "Pennsylvania is the most active market in the country," said Tom Michelman, a senior consultant XENERGY Inc., a Massachusetts energy consulting firm. At the federal level, the Clinton Adminstration is advocating that all U.S. electric customers be able to choose their supplier by 2003. A nationwide market with at least some common guidelines might make it easier for outside suppliers to provide competition to local monopolies. Restructuring legislation has been introduced in both the House and the Senate. California was supposed to be the shining example for the rest of the nation when it opened its market to competition on Jan. 1. Instead, it's been a flop. First, technical difficulties delayed the start for several months. Then, when everybody had the chance to switch suppliers, almost nobody did. That's because all utility customers enjoyed rate cuts, whether they stuck with their same company or went with a new supplier. And the rules made it impossible, industry experts said, for a supplier to cut prices below a utility's rate and still make a profit. Experts say those same restrictions do not exist in the Pennsylvania program.

    Energy Deregulation Energy Deregulation: What's Really Going On? Part 1 We've all looked past the $27 screwdriver. A little corruption is manageable. But when it comes and knocks on everyone's door and there's no longer a choice as to whether or not you can be manipulated and taken advantage of, it's time to step up and take action.
    This is the second article in a series on the current energy situation and the energy deregulation in the Western region of the United States. We asked several questions last time and now we're going to try to uncover some of the facts behind them.
    Basically, this is the energy problem as it stands today: The Western Grid, as it's known, is a network of high power lines that is hooked up to generating power throughout the United States. It is simple to move energy great distances, like from Canada to San Diego. It's applied into the system at one end as a bank of consumption for the other end. When energy deregulation took place, Southern California Edison and many of the cur rent electrical companies were generating, producing and creating a profit on about $4 per kilowatt (I,000 watts of electricity). Then they were forced to sell their generating capabilities.

    Pending regulator approval, Dallas-based TXU Energy will gain NewPower's 34,000 electricity customers in the Houston area, and Houston-based Reliant will get 45,000 NewPower customers in the Dallas market. Also, although they will be paying less than local customers who pay the "price to beat" rates of incumbent provider Reliant, many former NewPower customers in Houston will be paying more as customers of TXU. NewPower has been the most aggressive among competing electricity retailers in the state the leader among providers that had convinced customers to switch over from their incumbent provider. "I think it's going to shake some confidence in the system," said Reggie James, director of the southwest region of Consumers Union in Austin. When deregulation was first proposed, James said, "there was all this hype about how everyone would save all this money."
