PES was an early adopter of Distribution Design Studio (DDS), software from Itron used to improve the distribution design process and reduce the redundancy of construction drawings and staking sheets both in the field and in the office. Further building on this effort, in the best interest of its customers, PES began looking for ways to leverage its existing technologies with DDS, helping to keep prices low—an ultimate benefit to its ratepayers.
Because the fuel cost adjustment is a per kilowatt-hour charge, the amount that consumers will save depends on the amount of energy they use. While savings will vary across the Tennessee Valley, residential consumers can expect a decrease ranging from about $4 to $8 in their monthly power bills.
