• Ownership form and rate structure: an examination of cooperative and municipal electric distribution utilities.

Research efforts examine the effect of municipal and cooperative ownership forms on the prices of electric distributors. A system of demand, price, and cost equations was estimated for a sample of Tennessee Valley Authority electric distributors. Empirical tests prove that municipal ownership reduces residential and commercial rates. In addition, municipals were found to practice non-economic based price discrimination by favoring residential and customers over industrial customers.

• Texas a&M Research Consortium to Develop Smart Grid Business Models for Electric Coops, Municipal and Other Public Utilities

COLLEGE STATION, Texas, April 20 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Texas A&M University College of Architecture today announced the formation of a new six-month research consortium beginning May 1, 2010 to help electric cooperatives, municipal and other public utilities evaluate the business case for smart grid investments. Electric smart grids, which can provide integrated communication, automation and control of the entire electric system from generating plants to the operation of electric equipment inside homes, commercial buildings and industrial plants, can reduce utility customer costs by reducing expensive peak hour electricity use. However, smart grid investments are expensive, often requiring large up-front costs that can take a number of years to recover.

• Community-Owned Utilities and Their Customers Tap the Power of Renewable Energy

A variety of sources The power supply portfolio that WPPI draws on to provide renewable energy for its voluntary program includes wind and hydroelectric power, as well as more unconventional sources, such as the Outagamie Clean Energy landfill-to-Gas Project and biogas energy generated from the anaerobic digester operated by the Neenah-Menasha Sewerage Commission. In addition to that, six WPPI member municipal electric utilities in the state - each of which hosts a state facility - sell a total of 33,000 megawatt-hours (MWh) of renewable energy to the state, enough to provide approximately 80% of the total electric usage for each of those state facilities.
