Statewide model tariff

The PA PUC adopted a model tariff for every jurisdictional electric distribution company. It applies to new or incremental loads at or above 50 MW individually or 100 MW in aggregate. The model sets the statewide baseline, but each utility must file its own enforceable tariff and obtain Commission approval.

Statewide action

Pennsylvania model tariff for large-load customers

Approved

The Commission adopted a statewide model tariff for new or incremental large loads at or over 50 MW individually or 100 MW in aggregate. It is guidance for utility-specific filings rather than a self-executing statewide rate. The docket remains active after reconsideration activity and June 2026 follow-up rulemaking questions.
