On October 17, 2008 UI filed a Variable Peak Pricing (VPP) Rider with the Department of Public Utilitity Control (D.P.U.C.) in Docket 05-06-04RE04.

Effective July 1, 2009 this rider will be available to customers taking the SOLR service and to all other customers July 1, 2010. Under this rider, customers receiving service on a time-of-day rate will have the opportunity to purchase generation service from UI that is priced on a daily basis, during peak hours. You must have the appropriate metering to choose this rider, so a new meter might need to be installed. If non-standard metering is required, the Customer may be responsible for the incremental costs of such metering.
