Summary
The Colorado Public Utilities Commission issued a verbal decision approving most terms of a non-unanimous settlement in Public Service Company of Colorado's electric rate case, providing for a $157 million revenue increase, a 9.3% return on equity and a 54.5% equity ratio, with rates expected to become effective August 29, 2026 pending a written decision. Xcel Energy reaffirmed its 2026 ongoing earnings per share guidance of $4.04 to $4.16.
Key points
- PSCo originally sought a $356 million (9.9%) electric revenue increase in November 2025, or $526 million including rider roll-ins, based on a 9.8% ROE and 55% equity ratio.
- A June 2026 non-unanimous settlement drew opposition from AARP, the City of Boulder and the Colorado Office of the Utility Consumer Advocate.
- The approved terms include a $157 million (4.4%) revenue increase based on a 2025 historical test year using a 13-month average, a performance framework for Comanche Unit 3 through 2029, and continuation of previously authorized trackers and deferrals.
- Rates are expected to take effect August 29, 2026 following a written decision.
