Critical Peak Pricing:
Xcel Energy’s CPP Journey with C&I Customers

DATE / TIME: Thursday, March 30, 12:30 to 1:30 pm ET


Hosted by PLMA's Retail Pricing Group

Moderated by PLMA Retail Pricing Co-Chair Jordan Folks
Guest Speakers: 
Hallie Brodie, Audrey Ewen, and George Beatty of Xcel Energy

Retail Pricing

Xcel Energy operates two different CPP rates for C&I customers in their Colorado territory:
1) a general CPP rate for medium to large businesses, and
2) an EV fleet rate

Xcel Energy is also developing a new CPP rate pilot for larger C&I customers in their Minnesota territory, which they will launch this coming summer.

Join us to learn more from Xcel Energy about how they designed these rates, what the customer response has been, and how they’ve navigated regulatory headwinds along the way. In addition, we'll discuss Xcel's lessons learned to date, which encompass meeting customer expectations and working to grow their rate programs to maximize the DR potential of their commercial customers.

About the Retail Pricing Interest Group

The PLMA Retail Pricing Interest Group seeks to examine a variety of demand response, energy efficiency, and other system retail pricing rates and programs, independent of any specific technology or solution. It will collect and selectively share summaries, excerpts, and/or full text from published, and not-so-public documentation, including utility pilots and program evaluations, plus reports and white papers that cover rates/program evaluations, program design concepts, market assessments, savings potential, and more.
