Time-of-Use Electricity Pricing Should be Mandated as a Public Good |
May 21, 2004
A time-of-use (TOU) pricing program - entailing for all retail electricity consumers effective differential pricing for peak and off-peak use and meters capable of recording such use - is a public good. For this reason, government should mandate implementation of TOU pricing programs by requiring participation by all retail consumers. In particular, such programs should be extended to cover residential and other small retail consumers who presently - in contrast to most industrial and commercial consumers - are generally not participants in TOU pricing programs.
