Rate cases are getting more complicated. Commissions are asking harder questions about affordability, intervenors are showing up with household-level data, and the utilities that get caught flat-footed are the ones that built nothing before they filed.
BlastPoint's analysis of 1,000+ utilities found that more than 25 million U.S. residential customers, at least 1 in 6, are served by utilities flagged "Most Exposed" for affordability pressure. 59% of those utilities charge at or below the national average rate. Affordability pressure is a customer composition problem, not a rate level problem.
This session walks through what it takes to build the model and develop some solutions, before your regulator asks.
Joining BlastPoint is Tierra Resource Consultants, a boutique management consulting firm specializing in regulatory strategy, LMI program design, and DSM-related commission filings. They've been in that hearing room.
In this webinar, you'll discover
Why affordability pressure goes beyond rate levels and what customer composition means for your next filing
The data inputs that matter: moving from AMI and payment history to a defensible segment-level bill impact analysis
How rate design determines which customers absorb the impact, and what a segment-level bill impact model needs to hold up in a contested proceeding
How to position your DSM portfolio as a toolkit for affordability rather than a cost line item to be cut
