Update: AEP requested that the Commission adopt an expedited procedural schedule to consolidate several outstanding cases associated with its capacity-related charges.  The cases involve: (1) the Ohio Supreme Court’s remand in AEP’s Capacity Charge case regarding the appropriate energy credit to offset AEP’s capacity costs; (2) the Ohio Supreme Court’s remand in AEP’s second electric security plan regarding the Court’s agreement with customers that the PUCO erred by allowing AEP to collect unlawful transition revenues—to remedy the error, the Court directed the PUCO to adjust the balance of AEP’s deferred capacity costs to eliminate the overcompensation of capacity revenue; (3) adjustments to AEP’s Retail Stability Rider to implement the net effects of the Court’s remand decisions; and (4) allegations that AEP double-recovered capacity costs through its Fuel Adjustment Clause and Fixed Cost Rider.  According to AEP, these cases present interrelated issues which warrant a unified decision from the PUCO.  In support of its proposal for a consolidated hearing, AEP filed testimony regarding the interrelated capacity issues.  AEP is requesting an unreasonable schedule that would begin the evidentiary hearing on July 27, 2016.
