RICHMOND — The State Corporation Commission (SCC) will hold a public hearing on March 10, 2011, in Richmond to receive public testimony on two pilot programs proposed by Appalachian Power Company (APCo) for certain customers of the utility that generate electricity on-site from renewable generation facilities.

In addition to receiving testimony in Richmond, the SCC will arrange for interested persons in the APCo service territory to call in to the hearing by telephone.

The pilot programs would offer dynamic pricing for purchases and sales of electricity on an hourly and monthly basis to non-residential rate customers that have properly certificated renewable generation facilities.

The hearing in Richmond will begin at 10 a.m. on March 10 in an SCC courtroom on the second floor of the Tyler Building at 1300 East Main Street. Any person wishing to testify in person should arrive early in the courtroom and notify the SCC bailiff.

Any person desiring to testify by telephone may do so by dialing a conference call to be established by the SCC 15 minutes prior to the beginning of the public hearing. The toll-free dial-in number for the hearing is 1-866-842-5779, and the pass code is 8043719406.
