Base-rate reviews and adjustment mechanisms in Texas

This docket is a full base-rate review. Selected charges can change on separate schedules without reopening every issue in this case.

Full base-rate review

At least every four years

A regulated electric utility generally must initiate a comprehensive base-rate proceeding at least once every four years, subject to the statutory waiver process.

Rate period: Historical test year in the comprehensive rate filing.
