The Jamaica Public Service Company (JPS) is appealing several of the decisions made by the Office of Utilities Regulation in its Annual Review and Extraordinary Rate Review 2022 Determination Notice issued last month.
The appeal was filed with the Electricity Appeal Tribunal on September 19.
The OUR says JPS is appealing its treatment of the Independent Power Producers cost in the system losses calculation, the regulatory definition of the foreign exchange surcharge, and the final assessment of the quality of service (Q-Factor) performance in 2021.
JPS is requesting that the OUR's decisions be set aside and/or modified as the Tribunal deems fit.
The OUR says the application represents the latest in a series of appeals of its decisions by the JPS. The appeals are pending tribunal review.
