Abstract
A novel method for harmonizing the advantages of dynamic retail electricity pricing with the protections of approved, regulated electricity tariffs is discussed and demonstrated. The method socializes and protects customers from long-term locational price variability that is unfair to those customers who are, by no fault of their own, served at congested locations on a distribution system. However, the method preserves short-term (e.g., diurnal) price variability that might induce helpful, mitigative responses from retail electricity customers. Because the method causes actual price recovery to track a customer class's approved, regulated price recovery, the method may remove regulators' objections to dynamic electricity pricing and thereby hasten adoption of market-based retail electricity pricing and transactive energy systems.
