PacifiCorp, a ScottishPower subsidiary, has asked state regulators to approve a legal and regulatory realignment of the company. The purpose is to provide a permanent allocation of generation benefits and costs among the states served by PacifiCorp, thus allowing each state to pursue regulatory policies deemed appropriate without affecting customers in other states. Filings made recently involved five of the six western states that form PacifiCorp’s service territory—Utah, Oregon, Wyoming, Idaho, Washington, California. PacifiCorp proposed the creation of individual state electric companies, a generation company, and a service company. They would be owned by a non-operating US holding company and remain part of the ScottishPower group. For further information, visit ElectricNet.
