Power Bill Shuffle: FERC Logs Multiple Rate Tweaks
Published Date: 6/6/2025
Notice
Summary
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission got a bunch of new electric rate filings from power companies like Oleander, Holtec Palisades, and Alabama Power. These filings include rate changes, tariff updates, and compliance tweaks that could affect how much customers pay and when changes kick in—some as soon as June 2025 and others stretching into 2026. If you’re involved in energy or just curious, keep an eye on comment deadlines in June to have your say!

Multiple electric rate filings with set dates

These filings include initial rate filings, tariff amendments, and formula-rate changes listed by docket number and applicant.
Specific filings ask for cost recovery, waivers, and MBR authority
Some filings explicitly request cost recovery or special authorizations: for example, Louisiana Generating LLC filed a 'Request to Recover Costs Associated with Acting as a Local Balancing Authority' (filed 5/30/25, comment date 6/20/25), Holtec Palisades, LLC filed an 'Application for MBR Authority and Initial Baseline Tariff' to be effective 6/2/2025, and PJM requested a waiver and expedited action (filed 5/30/25, comment date 6/9/25).
June 2025 public comment deadlines
Many of the listed dockets have public comment dates at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on dates in June 2025 (examples: 6/9/25, 6/20/25, 6/23/25). To intervene or protest you must file by the specified comment date following Rules 211, 214, or 206 (18 CFR 385.211, 385.214, 385.206).
