Guide to Electric and Natural Gas Utilities in South Carolina (2010) South Carolina Energy Office


This report is intended to serve as a customer-focused guide to South Carolina’s retail electricity and natural gas distribution utilities, based on the most current publicly-available data. The following data are included in this report: • Customer, Revenue, Sales, and Average Price data are presented for all electric

and natural gas utilities. “Average Price” is calculated by dividing a utility’s annual revenue by its annual sales. Actual utility rate schedules may vary depending on a customer’s particular usage characteristics and preferences.

• Green Power Customer, Revenue, Sales, and Average Price data are presented

for electric utilities offering active “Green Power” programs. These programs provide utility customers the opportunity to pay extra for electricity generated from renewable energy resources such as wind, solar, and landfill gas.

• Net Metering Customer and Purchases data are presented for electric utilities

offering active “Net Metering” programs. These programs allow utility customers to sell surplus electricity that they generate back to their utility, helping them to save money on their electric bill.

• Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)

data are presented for electric utilities currently using AMR and/or AMI. AMR allows utilities to read customer meters remotely, reducing the cost of meter reading and permitting utilities to offer time-of-use pricing. AMI, including “smart meters”, enables two-way communication between customer meters and utility companies, often providing customers with greater ability to control their energy costs and participate in utility demand response programs

• Demand-Side Management Programs are listed for all electric and natural gas

utilities. Demand-Side Management, or “DSM”, is a strategy that electric and natural gas utilities employ to decrease the demand for, and cost of, their energy services. DSM programs usually provide financial incentives for customer participation, such as bill credits or reduced utility rates. DSM can target customer usage continuously (“Energy Efficiency”) or during periods of peak demand (“Load Management”), and may rely on provision of information to encourage changes in customer behavior (“Public Information”).

The data in this report were provided by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (www.eia.gov). The information about DSM programs was collected through an annual survey conducted by the South Carolina Energy Office (“SCEO”). The SCEO serves as South Carolina’s clearinghouse for energy data and analysis. In addition, the SCEO provides a number of services to help South Carolinians reduce their energy expenses and develop clean, home-grown energy resources. For more information about the SCEO, please visit http://energy.sc.gov or contact the office at (803) 737-8030.

A. Overview


http://www.eia.gov/�


Retail customers in South Carolina are currently served by 47 electricity distribution utilities and 14 natural gas distribution utilities. Each utility is granted exclusive rights to retail service provision within its respective service area. Service areas often traverse state lines—several utilities with headquarters in South Carolina also serve customers in neighboring states, and several utilities with headquarters outside of South Carolina also serve customers within the state. There are four investor-owned electric utilities and two investor-owned natural gas utilities currently operating in South Carolina. Investor-owned electric utilities generate the majority of their electricity through company-owned power plants and sell electricity to retail customers in their designated service areas as well as to various wholesale customers. The rate structures and customer services of investor-owned utilities are regulated by the South Carolina Public Service Commission (PSC) and its independent administrative counterpart, the South Carolina Office of Regulatory Staff (ORS). You can learn more about South Carolina’s investor-owned electric utilities through their annual Integrated Resource Plans, available online at http://energy.sc.gov/index.aspx?m=49&t=146 South Carolina has one state-owned utility—the South Carolina Public Service Authority, more commonly known as Santee Cooper. Santee Cooper generates and supplies power to the state’s electric cooperatives as well as to several municipal electric utilities. It also directly distributes power to a large number of retail customers in Berkeley, Georgetown, and Horry Counties. Twenty-one local governments in South Carolina currently own and operate their own electricity distribution networks, while 12 local governments own and operate their own natural gas distribution networks. Municipal electric utilities purchase most of their electricity on the wholesale market, typically through contracts with the investor-owned utilities and Santee Cooper or through intermediaries such as the Piedmont Municipal Power Agency. Some municipalities also own their own electricity generating facilities. Municipal utilities are not subject to pricing or customer service regulation by the PSC. There are currently 21 electric distribution cooperatives operating in South Carolina. These customer-owned utilities supply primarily rural service areas which have historically had high per-customer costs of service due to their low population density. Twenty local distribution cooperatives pool their costs by securing electricity through Central Electric Power Cooperative, Inc., which purchases power from Santee Cooper and other wholesale suppliers and delivers it to co-op service areas through its statewide transmission network. Electric cooperatives are not subject to pricing or customer service regulation by the PSC.
