Rhode Island Energy Electric and Gas Base Distribution Rate Case

Michael J. Walsh testified for Conservation Law Foundation in Rhode Island Energy’s electric and gas distribution rate case. His direct and surrebuttal testimony addresses the company’s gas line extension allowances: how new connections are assessed, who pays their costs, and how those decisions fit Rhode Island’s climate commitments. The surrebuttal responds to the company’s defense of its policy and examines the economic tests used to calculate customer contributions.
