UGI Utilities Inc.—Electric Division The Electric Division of UGI Utilities Inc. (UGI), a subsidiary of UGI Corporation, provides electric service to 62,250 customers in Northwestern Luzerne and Southern Wyoming counties in Pennsylvania. In 2010, UGI had energy sales totaling 981 GWh—up 2.7 percent from 2009. Residential sales continued to dominate UGI’s market with 54.4 percent of the total sales, followed by commercial (33.9 percent) and industrial (11.1 percent). Average annual use per residential customer was 9,742 kWh at an average cost of 13.58 cents per kWh; operating revenues totaled $115.2 million. Over the five-year planning horizon, UGI expects total energy demand to drop in 2011 and then increase at an average annual rate of 0.2 percent. This includes an average annual increase in residential sales of 0.1 percent and an annual increase in commercial sales of 0.4 percent. Industrial sales are expected to remain flat. See Figure 27. UGI is basically a winter peaking utility, although the differential is inconsequential. One or 2 MW separates the two peaks. Peak load on the UGI system occurred on Jan. 24, 2011, and totaled 198 MW, or 2.6 percent above the 2009-10 winter peak load of 193 MW. The 2010 summer peak load of 197 MW was 8.8 percent higher than the peak load experienced during summer 2009. The actual average annual peak load growth rate over the past 10 years was 1.5 percent. The five-year forecast indicates an average increase in peak load of 0.8 percent. Peak load is projected to increase from 198 MW in 2010-11 to 206 MW in 2015-16. See Figure 28. For Calendar Year 2010, there were five EGSs serving UGI’s customers, providing 185 GWh, or 18.8 percent of total consumption. UGI does not own electric generation supply and acquires supply for its customers through a series of competitive solicitations. Default service supply for customers with peak loads in excess of 500 kW is purchased in the spot market. At the end of 2010, EGSs were serving 400 customers, or 18 percent of total sales volumes. UGI offered a Voluntary Load Reduction Program to commercial and industrial customers in 2009, and three customers enrolled. However, since no load reduction events were called, the program has been discontinued, in favor of PJM’s economic and emergency demand response programs. If called upon, the 13 participating customers can provide six MW in total demand response reduction. UGI is a member of PJM. 42 Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission
