APS and ACC strike lower rate deal to curb costs
The accord aims for about 32.3 million dollars in yearly revenue relief and a three year 30 million dollar investment to cut costs. The commission could decide to accept the deal by early June. Commissioner DeMichele says the rate cut stems from five years of efficiency work, with benefits expected for residential and small business customers as industrial users face increased competition. Gary Yaquinto credits regulator driven incentives from a 1991 rate case for APS's efficiency gains and notes future projects to avoid building costly plants, including home retrofits and solar research.
