This addition to Section 303 provides the Commission with the flexibility to consider and approve a low income residential utility rate or discount for qualified low income customers (those approved to participate in the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program), provided that such rate may not provide a discount over 25% of the average customer class usage. This permits those customers to receive utility distribution services at a lower cost. In the case of Delmarva Power the discount is estimated to be no more than $10 -15 per month.

An Act To Amend Title 26 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Public Utility Rates.
