Utility Rate Consulting
Koteen was launched five decades ago to provide Utility Rate Consulting Services. We now offer comprehensive expertise to help utilities, commercial customers, and stakeholders navigate the complexities of rate structures and regulatory frameworks. We assist utilities in designing equitable and sustainable rate structures that ensure financial stability while promoting energy efficiency and demand management. Through detailed cost-of-service analyses, we ensure that rates accurately reflect the true cost of service across diverse customer classes, supporting fair cost recovery and regulatory compliance.
Our team provides strategic support in regulatory filings and proceedings, offering expert testimony and guidance to help clients successfully manage rate cases. We also develop clear and effective tariffs that communicate rate terms transparently to both customers and regulators. By benchmarking rates against regional and national standards, we identify opportunities for improved competitiveness and efficiency. Our impact assessments quantify how proposed rate changes affect customer bills, utility revenues, and investment incentives to inform balanced decision-making.
Additionally, we craft customer engagement strategies that foster understanding and acceptance of rate adjustments, helping utilities maintain strong customer relationships. Drawing on deep knowledge of utility economics and energy markets, we deliver tailored solutions that align with your strategic goals, supporting operational sustainability and customer satisfaction in a dynamic energy environment.
