Encoded from the same tariff book, on the same day. Which one
you are on is on your bill; which one you are eligible for is set by the
utility, not by this page.
Transcription notes recorded when this tariff was encoded, including anything deliberately left out.
THE BASIC CUSTOMER CHARGE IS PRORATED BY BILLING DAYS AND THIS ENCODING CANNOT EXPRESS THAT. Dominion's own worksheet computes it with a seven-deep nested IF: a cycle of 25 days or fewer is billed $14.40/30 per day, 26 to 40 days is billed the full $14.40, and a bimonthly cycle is billed a multiple - 60 days is $28.80. The filed schedule says the same: 'When bills are calculated for a bimonthly period, the Basic Customer Charge shall be...'. A monthly fixed charge is therefore EXACT for an ordinary 28-to-31-day cycle and WRONG outside one. Measured against the workbook: at 1,000 kWh over 25 days it overstates by $2.41, and over 60 days it understates by $14.39.
Dominion Energy North Carolina is VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY filing before the North Carolina Utilities Commission. Same legal entity as Dominion Energy Virginia, entirely different tariff: Virginia is tiered at 800 kWh with 14 riders and a $7.58 customer charge; this is flat, six riders, $14.40. Nothing carries between them.
Dominion's North Carolina NATURAL GAS business was transferred to Enbridge. This is the electric tariff and the only one in scope.
NOT TIERED. One energy rate for every kWh, changing only by season: 12.1533 c/kWh June-September, 10.5123 c/kWh October-May.
Riders are ADDED to the printed energy charge, not included in it. Schedule 1: 'The energy charges in II.B. above shall be increased or decreased by any applicable Riders.' Riders A and B1 each state they are 'not a part of the base fuel cost included in the energy prices stated in the Rate Schedules'. This is the OPPOSITE convention to Dominion Energy South Carolina, where fuel and DSM sit inside the printed rate.
Six per-kWh riders total 1.4377 c/kWh, about 14% of the winter energy rate: A, B, B1, C, CCR and CE.
Two flat monthly riders apply: RP (CEPS) at $0.84 and RPE (CEPS experience modification) at MINUS $0.26. Both are folded into the monthly fixed charge with the $14.40 basic customer charge. Both exclude the companion schedules 1W, 1DF and 7.
Rider D is a Tax Effect Recovery Factor applied to contributions in aid of construction, not a bill component. Deliberately excluded.
The riders expire on four different dates. B, CCR, RP and RPE run to 2027-01-31; B1 to 2027-07-31; A, C and CE are open-ended. The earliest staleness date for this encoding is 2027-01-31.
A GENERAL RATE CASE IS PENDING. NCUC Docket E-22 Sub 765, filed 30 April 2026, seeks 11.99% on base rates and 15.42% from residential customers, plus two new riders (CVOW and NPTC). DENC intends to implement on a temporary basis subject to refund on 2026-12-01, with a final order expected around 2027-03-01. These rates are what DENC bills today and have a known expiry.
NOT RECONCILED. Dominion publishes an NC bill calculator workbook, unlike South Carolina, but it was not evaluated here - that needs the binary driven through LibreOffice as the Virginia build does. Back-solving the rate-case notice's proposed $151.48 at +12.76% gives ~$134.34 against this encoding's $134.48, but that is arithmetic on a forward-looking press figure with no stated basis, not a published current total, and is recorded as context rather than as verification.
The schedule's 5% Energy Conservation Standards discount closed 01-01-2011 and applies to legacy accounts only. Not encoded.
Bimonthly billing doubles the basic customer charge. Not modelled - this encoding assumes monthly billing.
The filed minimum charge is the $14.40 basic customer charge, and it is encoded as filed. Note it can never bind: the monthly fixed charge is $14.98 once Riders RP and RPE are folded in, so the subtotal always exceeds the minimum. It is recorded because the schedule states it, not because it does anything.
EXCLUDED: North Carolina sales tax of 7%, which applies on top of the electric and fuel charges.
SKIPPED Schedule 1P (TOU-Demand): carries $11.084 per kW summer and $6.490 per kW winter of on-peak demand. rategrid does not model demand charges, and 1P bills on a 30-minute interval peak that 8760 hourly values cannot recover.
SKIPPED Schedule 1E (experimental TOU with critical peak pricing): capped at 500 accounts, and its seasons split May-September against every other residential schedule's June-September.
NOT YET ENCODED: Schedules 1T (energy-only TOU) and 1W (time-controlled storage heating, a companion meter). Both are open and encodable; neither was in scope for this pass.
