What the filing saysAPPROVED. West Virginia PSC Commission Order of March 25, 2025 (Case 24-0611-E-T-PW) accepted a Joint Stipulation and ordered revised Schedules LCP and IP. Does not apply to existing customers' contracted capacity as of Jan 1, 2025. Initial contract term of at least 12 years, and the customer may designate a load ramp of up to 5 years, after which the initial term starts. Monthly billing demand is the greater of 80% of contract capacity for that period or 80% of the highest billing demand in the past 11 months, with a minimum monthly charge. Collateral follows the companies' proposal (24 times the customer's monthly bill under the original proposal; the companies may negotiate a different amount). After 5 years the customer may cut contract capacity up to 20% in total with no exit fee on 42 months' written notice (before the start of a PJM delivery year); a larger cut or termination also needs 42 months' notice and an exit fee. The exit fee is reduced if capacity is reassigned. Collateral details come from the order's summary of the stipulation; the compliance tariff sheets were not read.
