New Hampshire energy and electricity

The fact measures retail electricity revenue per kilowatthour across customer sectors. Default-service reconciliation charges concern one regulated price component, not every customer’s rate or a demonstrated statewide price reduction. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.

Retained New Hampshire evidence context: Average retail electricity price. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.

147:1 Restructuring Policy Principles. Amend RSA 374-F:3, V(e) to read as follows: (e) Notwithstanding any provision of subparagraphs (b) and (c), as competitive markets develop, the commission may approve alternative means of providing transition or default services which are designed to minimize customer risk, not unduly harm the development of competitive markets, and mitigate against price volatility without creating new deferred costs, if the commission determines such means to be in the public interest. No reconciliation of actual and estimated wholesale power supply costs incurred by a utility to provide default service shall be recovered through a non-bypassable charge, except in extraordinary circumstances as found to exist by the commission through an adjudicative proceeding. 147:2 Effective Date. This act shall take effect upon its passage.

The EIA fact is a New England regional regular-gasoline price proxy, not a New Hampshire-only price. A proposed federal gasoline-tax holiday concerns a price component across the region and nation; it does not establish enactment or consumer savings. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.

Retained New Hampshire evidence context: New England regular gasoline price. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.
