- Description:
- Regulation Policies on pricing electric power are examined on normative grounds. The implications for pricing electric power in the North Idaho Service Area of the Washington Water Power Company are studied for residential, commercial, and industrial customer classifications. Seasonal and seasonal with time-of-day pricing approaches are evaluated in a benefit-cost framework. Finally, the potential and effects on peak demands, the use of hydroelectric capacity and hence seasonal reservoir fluctuations are examined. The study finds that time-of-day pricing may not be desirable for residential and commercial customers in Northern Idaho. Industrial customers would clearly benefit. At the same time the results suggest that even with the conservative approach taken to evaluating seasonal reservoir effects, such effects appear to be important.
