Dear Chairman Bartlett & Commissioners Gilbert & Scully, I wanted to reach out to express my support for the negotiated agreement in docket No. 2024-00137. As a policy maker who is in favor of beneficial electrification and a transition to renewable energy, I am also cognizant of the costs that this transition will have on all ratepayers and how those costs can act against the goals we are pursuing. I am most sensitive to the impact that our policies have on low-income residential ratepayers, and I believe that a shift from 9% to 10% is a modest and absorbable shift that would provide needed relief for large customers and a fairer distribution of stranded costs. Beyond that, I feel confident that the Legislature may take further action this session to stabilize those costs and make them stable into the future. Thank you for your hard work! Be well, Rep. Christopher Kessler House District 121 (South Portland/Cape Elizabeth) 39 Stanley Street South Portland, ME 04106

As a small Quasi-municipal utility district, the LWSD feels that the current allocation of cost among the various rate class divisions is unfair with regards to the new "Public Policy Charge". As part of a recent plant upgrade at our wastewater treatment facility a decision was made to purchase a transformer as part of the service entrance upgrade, so that we could take advantage of the more economical EP rate structure rather than the standardized ES rate. With the 7-1-24 introduction of the "Public Policy Charge" the ES rate is now more economical due to the lower PPC of $678.64/mo. compared to the $1,827.87/mo. PPC assessed to the EP rate class. At the LWSD we pride ourselves in doing everything possible to keep cost low for our ratepayers, which is very difficult when an annual increase of just under $22,000 is assessed on just one electrical service account. Like other municipalities, we are further impacted by these new charges because we have multiple facilities throughout our community each with a separate electric service and Public Policy Charge assessed to each account. LWSD has made a request to Versant Power to switch to the ES rate but would have to relinquish ownership of our 1000KVA transformer and possibly incur other cost associated with switching over the metering equipment on our electrical service for this plant. It seems unfair to assess these unbalanced fees on business and municipalities that are just trying to keep cost low for their customers, tax payers and rate payers.
