Summary

The Kentucky Public Service Commission issued an order addressing motions for corrections and clarification filed by Louisville Gas and Electric Company (LG&E) and Kentucky Utilities Company (KU) regarding a prior rate increase approval. The order also addresses multiple petitions for rehearing and reconsideration filed by various parties, including LG&E/KU, Joint Intervenors, and the Broadband and Cable Association.

What changed

This order from the Kentucky Public Service Commission addresses multiple filings related to a prior decision approving rate increases for LG&E/KU. Specifically, it consolidates and rules on motions for corrections and clarification filed by LG&E/KU, as well as petitions for rehearing and reconsideration filed by LG&E/KU, Joint Intervenors, and the Kentucky Broadband and Cable Association. The Commission is reviewing these filings under the legal standard for rehearing, which limits review to new evidence not readily discoverable at the time of the original order.

Compliance officers for LG&E/KU and other affected utilities should monitor the outcomes of these rehearing and reconsideration processes, as they may impact the final approved rates and regulatory treatments. While this order itself is a notice of the Commission's actions on these motions, the underlying rate case (Case Nos. 2025-00113 and 2025-00114) and the subsequent filings indicate ongoing procedural activity that could lead to further adjustments or clarifications affecting utility operations and customer charges.

What to do next

  1. Monitor outcomes of rehearing and reconsideration filings for LG&E/KU rate cases.
  2. Review final orders for any adjustments to approved rates or regulatory treatments.

COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY BEFORE THE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION In the Matter of:

O R D E R On February 16, 2026, the Commission issued orders that, among other things, approved an increase in base rates for Louisville Gas and Electric Company (LG&E) and Kentucky Utilities Company (KU) (jointly, LG&E/KU). On February 26, 2026, LG&E/KU each filed updated pole attachment rates. On March 6, 2026, LG&E/KU jointly filed a 1 motion for corrections and clarification related to different issues identified by LG&E/KU. 2 On March 9, 2026, Kentuckians for the Commonwealth, Kentucky Solar Energy Society, Metropolitan Housing Coalition, and Mountain Association (collectively, Joint Intervenors) filed a motion for rehearing pursuant to KRS 278.400.

hearings, to correct any material errors or omissions, or to correct findings that are

unreasonable or unlawful. A Commission Order is deemed unreasonable only when “the evidence presented leaves no room for difference of opinion among reasonable minds.” 10

An order can only be unlawful if it violates a state or federal statute or constitutional provision. 11 By limiting rehearing to correct material errors or omissions, and findings that are unreasonable or unlawful, or to weigh new evidence not readily discoverable at the time of the original hearings, KRS 278.400 is intended to provide closure to Commission proceedings. Rehearing does not present parties with the opportunity to relitigate a matter fully addressed in the original Order.

LG&E/KU’S MOTION FOR CORRECTIONS LG&E/KU jointly filed a motion for corrections related to the Commission’s

February 16, 2026 Orders. LG&E/KU stated that the items noted below are not overly substantive, but the requested clarifications and corrections should be made to ensure clarity for LG&E/KU, parties to these proceedings, and customers in order to facilitate the refund process. LG&E/KU noted that the filing was not made pursuant to KRS 278.400 12 and made the filing pursuant to 807 KAR 5:001, Section 5. 13

Energy Regulatory Comm’n v. Kentucky Power Co., 605 S.W.2d 46 (Ky. App. 1980). 10 Public Service Comm’n v.

Errors in Appendices

As discussed more fully below, the Commission grants LG&E/KU’s motion for

corrections, except for the Gas Meter Pulse correction, which is denied. For KU, the Commission finds that Appendix D from the Commission’s February 16, 2026, and as

modified by the Commission’s March 4, 2026 Order, should be stricken from the record

and replaced with the corrected Appendix D, which is attached to this Order in Appendix A. Additionally, for KU, the Commission finds that Appendix E from the

Commission’s February 16, 2026 Order should be stricken from the record and replaced

with the corrected Appendix E, which is attached to this Order in Appendix A. For LG&E Electric, the Commission finds that Appendix D from the Commission’s February 16, 2026, and as modified by the Commission’s March 4, 2026 Order, should be stricken from the record and replaced with the corrected Appendix D, which is attached to this Order as Appendix . Also for LG&E Electric, the Commission finds that Appendix E from the Commission’s February 16, 2026 Order should be stricken from the record and replaced with the corrected Appendix E, which is attached to this Order as Appendix A. For LG&E Gas, the Commission finds that Appendix D from the Commission’s February 16, 2026 Order should be stricken from the record and replaced with the corrected Appendix D, which is attached to this Order in Appendix A. The Commission also notes that in the LG&E Gas Order for Case No. 2025-00114, the ordering paragraphs 42 and 43 on page 169 inadvertently mentions Appendix E. The Commission finds that this error should be corrected to replace the mention of Appendix E with Appendix D.

-4- Case No. 2025-00114

The Commission also inadvertently did not include the rates for Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment Rider EVSE-R and its special contract rates in Appendix D in LG&E Gas, Appendix E for LG&E Electric, and Appendix E for KU. Those rates are corrected in the respective corrected appendices and attached to this Order in Appendix A. Return on Equity for the Retired Asset Recovery Adjustment Clause, Gas Line Tracker Adjustment Clause, and Pilot Generation Recovery Adjustment Clause. LG&E/KU stated that they understand that both the spirit and letter of the Orders finding that a return on equity (ROE) of 9.775 percent applies to base rates and 9.675 percent applies to mechanisms or riders, but argue that the Commission’s approval of the proposed tariff sheets for Retired Asset Recovery Adjustment Clause (Adjustment Clause RAR), Gas Line Tracker Adjustment Clause (Adjustment Clause GLT), and Pilot Generation Recovery Adjustment Clause (Adjustment Clause PGR) which refer to “base

rate” return on equity creates an inconsistency. The Commission finds that the request

for clarification is granted. Although the Order did not specify base rate when discussing the riders, the tariffs sheets for the Adjustment Clause RAR, Adjustment Clause GLT, and Adjustment Clause PGR should reflect the approved 9.675 percent approved ROE for these adjustment clauses. General Time of Day Service. LG&E/KU explained the following related to general time of day (GTOD) service: For KU, it appears that Appendix E to the KU Order transposes the rates for base hour and peak hour for GTOD Demand Service. Appendix E at page 3 lists the base hour rate as $15.08 and the peak hour rate as $5.82. In fact, it should be the opposite with the base hour rate being $5.82 and the peak hour rate being $15.08. For LG&E, Appendix E to the LG&E Electric Order at page 2 states that the GTOD Energy Three-Phase On-Peak Total Rate is $0.22628, which

-5- Case No. 2025-00114

is mistaken. The rate should be $0.26628 as noted for the Single-Phase On-Peak Total Rate on that same page. 14 LG&E/KU requested correction of this error. The Commission finds that the GTOD 15 service rates should be corrected to reflect this error. These corrections are reflected in Appendix A of this Order. Power Service. LG&E/KU requested correction of rates for power service (PS) stating that the demand charges for both KU and LG&E in Appendix E of the electric Orders are based on kW instead of kVA. LG&E/KU stated that they should be based 16 17 on kVA. The Commission finds that the PS service rates should be amended to correct 18 this error. The updated PS rates are included in Appendix A of this Order. Curtailable Service Rider. LG&E/KU requested correction of a failure to identify the $5.14 as a credit on customer bills due to the lack of parentheses around the $5.14 for Option A – Primary Voltage in Appendix E of LG&E Electric. The Commission finds 19 that Appendix E should be corrected to reflect this credit related to the curtailable service rider. This correction is included in Appendix A of this Order. Rates for Lighting. LG&E/KU requested to make the following corrections: In Appendix E of the KU Order, there appear to be two extraneous lighting rates of $4.53 and $4.91 on page 6 and another two extraneous lighting rates of $10.68 and $14.42 on page 7. These should be eliminated, which should make the remaining schedule line up appropriately. The same is

See LG&E Electric Order, Appendix E, page 11. 19

true for Appendix E of the LG&E Electric Order. There appear to be two extraneous rates of $12.13 and $14.30 on page 5 when they are already listed on page 4. LG&E/KU request removal of these extraneous rates. Also, for KU, there is nothing in Appendix E for Restricted Lighting Service rate code 446; KU believes the rate should be $13.31. For LG&E Electric, there is nothing in Appendix E for the Lighting Service LN3 rate code; LG&E believes the rate should be $11.30. 20 The Commission finds that the lighting rates should be corrected. The Commission notes that the rates were not extraneous, but rather misaligned with the proper tariff code. As for KU’s Restricted Lighting Service rate code 446, the correct rate is $13.32 rather than $13.31. The corrected lighting rates are included in Appendix A of this Order. AMI Opt-Out Charge. LG&E/KU stated that in Appendix D of the LG&E Gas Order at page 3, the AMI Opt-Out charges are incorrect. LG&E/KU explained that Appendix 21 D stated an $80 opt-out fee and a $20 monthly fee and that the correct charges should be $85 and $9, respectively. The Commission finds that the AMI Opt-Out charges in 22 Appendix D of the LG&E Gas Order should be amended to correct this error. This correction is included in Appendix A of this Order. Small and Large Qualifying Facilities. LG&E/KU stated that in Appendix D in the LG&E Electric Order, pages 1–2, the tables appear to contain mistakes. LG&E/KU 23 stated that it seems that the tables mix up “without losses” values with “with losses” values

and it appears that the “with losses” table used KU values instead of LG&E values. The 24

Commission finds that the errors in Appendix D of the LG&E Electric Order should be corrected to reflect the correct avoided costs for qualifying facilities (QF). Appendix A of

this Order reflect LG&E/KU’s requested corrections.

Excess Facilities Charge. LG&E/KU requested corrections because in the LG&E Gas Order, page 4 of Appendix D lists the values that LG&E requested in its original filing instead of the stipulated values. LG&E/KU stated that the 1.44 percent and 25 0.68 percent values should be 1.41 percent and 0.69 percent, respectively. For KU 26 and LG&E Electric, LG&E/KU pointed out that the Orders omitted the Excess Facilities charges and that those charges should be added. The Commission finds that the 27 excess facilities values in the LG&E Gas Order should be corrected to reflect the stipulated values. The Commission further finds that excess facility charges should be added for LG&E Electric and KU. The updated values and charges are reflected in Appendix A of this Order. Prepay Program. LG&E/KU stated that in approving LG&E/KU’s Pre-Pay Programs, Ordering Paragraph 56 on page 308 in the KU Order, Ordering Paragraph 53 on page 316 in the LG&E Electric Order, and Ordering Paragraph 33 on page 168 in the

LG&E Gas Order all require use of the word “member” in those approving paragraphs. 28

-8- Case No. 2025-00114

LG&E/KU requested a correction by changing “member” to “customer.” The 29 Commission finds this language should be corrected to strike “member” and replace it with “customer” in each Order, respectively. Gas Rates. LG&E/KU requested the following corrections related to gas rates: For the gas rates in Appendix D to the LG&E Gas Order, the rates for RGS (page 1), VFD (page 1), CGS (page 1), and IGS (pages 1-2) are stated as per 100 cubic feet, but it appears the values are per MCF. In that Appendix D at page 4, the charges on that page for Distribution Charge per MCF do not match the charges for CGS of $4.3764 (page 1), IGS of $3.0755 (pages 1-2), AAGS of $2.2009 (page 2), and DGGS of $0.3428 (pages 2-3) identified earlier in Appendix D. In that Appendix D at page 2, the SGSS Industrial rate is listed as $850 per day when it should be $850 per month.10 In that Appendix D at page 3, the DGGS Demand and Usage charges of $12.04 and $0.3428 seem to be in MCF rather than in cubic feet. If so, the decimal needs to be adjusted one place. Finally, in that Appendix at pages 3 and 4, the Gas Meter Pulse charges are listed twice with the page 3 charge being $31 and the page 4 charge being $33. The correct charge is $33. 30 The Commission finds that the errors and proposed corrections identified by LG&E/KU should be corrected. These corrections are reflected in Appendix A of this Order. Gas Meter Pulse Charge: Regarding the Gas Meter Pulse charge, the Commission finds that the $31 charge reflected in the LG&E Gas Order is the correct charge, not the $33 charge, and therefore, this request should be denied. The $33 charge is inclusive of the

-9- Case No. 2025-00114

inflation factor. However, the Commission removed this inflation factor from its calculation of the non-recurring special charges. 31

LG&E/KU’S NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL FROM THE STIPULATION

As noted above, on March 11, 2026, LG&E/KU filed notice to the Commission and all parties that they withdraw from the October 20, 2025 Stipulation pursuant to Paragraph 10.6 of that Stipulation. The Commission acknowledges that LG&E/KU 32 have withdrawn from the Stipulation.

KBCA’S PETITION FOR REHEARING KBCA’s Arguments. KBCA argued that the Commission should grant rehearing

pursuant to KRS 278.400 to correct findings that are unreasonable and unlawful. 33 KBCA first argued that the Commission’s February 16, 2026 Orders approving KU and

LG&E’s rate is unreasonable and unlawful because neither the Commission nor anyone else can “evaluate the evidence” that might be unlawful because neither the Commission nor anyone else can “evaluate the evidence” that might “support” the utilities’ rate. KBCA

argued that LG&E/KU repeatedly failed to explain or justify almost all the numbers underlying their pole rate calculations. KBCA argued that if the Commission cannot 34

“evaluate the evidence, calculate the rate, and support its findings” it cannot conclude

that a rate is fair, just and reasonable. 35

-10- Case No. 2025-00114

KBCA argued that neither KU nor LG&E “provid[ed] justification” for the combined carrying costs they added into their pole attachment rates. KBCA also argued that the 36

Commission’s Orders approving KU and LG&E’s rates are unreasonable and unlawful because it imposes artificially inflated rates on attachers to KU’s poles, approximately

11 percent and 13 percent higher than the rates calculated based on KU’s forecasted costs. KBCA averred that the “fair, just and reasonable” pole-attachment formula 37

implemented in Kentucky is based in part on the “embedded cost of an average bare pole of the utility,” not on the cost of a conglomerate of utilities and that there is thus no lawful basis for charging attachers to KU’s poles an inflated rate to cover LG&E’s costs. 38

KBCA also argued that an anticipated merger is insufficient justification for imposing

artificially inflated rates on attachers to KU’s poles. 39 LG&E/KU’s Response. LG&E/KU argued that the approved Rate PSA rates are

reasonable, consistent with prior precedent, and supported by the evidentiary record. 40 LG&E/KU highlighted that they formulated Rate PSA rates in these proceedings using the same methodology they have used for multiple rate cases. LG&E/KU also argued 41 that the Commission’s approved Rate PSA rates are both reasonable per se and reasonable as part of a compelling overall Stipulation. LG&E/KU argued that if the 42

Commission does revise Rate PSA rates on rehearing, it must account for any revenue increase or decrease relative to the stipulated rates by reallocating that revenue increase or decrease across all other customer classes. 43

KBCA’s Reply. KBCA argued that KU and LG&E have never supported their pole

rate calculations with actual data, despite repeated requests to do so, and provided examples of where LG&E/KU failed to substantiate their rates. KBCA highlighted its 44 argument that the Commission cannot use pole- attachment rates to subsidize other rate classes. 45

pleadings, and being otherwise sufficiently advised, the Commission finds that KBCA’s request should be denied. KBCA presented arguments that the Commission previously addressed in its February 16, 2026 Orders and presented no new evidence for consideration. These Orders balanced the practical reality that LG&E/KU have indicated they plan to file a merger in the first quarter of 2026 when deciding that LG&E/KU’s 46 combined rate should remain. Changing LG&E/KU’s established practice for setting pole-attachment rates, only to potentially re-unify them would be unreasonable. Furthermore, the Commission specifically addressed the issue of allowing LG&E/KU to use combined costs in this manner in the past, and KBCA did not present sufficient evidence to require LG&E/KU to eliminate the combined carrying costs nor did

it cite to a change in circumstance or law that would require the Commission to deviate from its administrative Order or prior approvals for these utilities. The Commission also

addressed LG&E/KU’s lack of transparency in its pole attachment rates by putting both

utilities on notice that, going forward, it should use public information from annual reports and FERC filings. Therefore, the Commission finds that KBCA’s request for rehearing should be denied.

LG&E/KU’S FILED POLE ATTACHMENT RATES

On February 26, 2026, LG&E/KU filed its pole-attachment rates in response to ordering paragraph 42 in Case No. 2025-00113, and ordering paragraph 39 in Case No. 2025-00114 of the Commission’s Orders dated February 16, 2026. The Commission 47 finds that the pole-attachment rates are approved consistent with the Commission’s findings in its February 16, 2026 Order. The pole-attachment rates listed in Appendix E of Case No. 2025-00113, February 16, 2026 Order, and Appendix E of Case No. 2025- 00114 LG&E Electric February 16, 2026 Order are stricken from the record and replaced with the updated rates are listed in Appendix A of this Order.

JOINT INTERVENORS’ MOTION FOR REHEARING Joint Intervenors’ Arguments. Joint Intervenors argued that the Commission

should revise its Net-metering Service 2 (NMS-2) rates consistent with the updated qualifying facilities (QF) rates as the Commission has unreasonably deviated from this practice by leaving NMS-2 rates at their previous level, while adjusting QF avoided energy and generation capacity costs based on new evidence and updated information. Joint 48

LG&E/KU’s PSA Rates Adjusted for final Order. 47 Motion for Rehearing of Joint Intervenors at 5. 48

-13- Case No. 2025-00114

Intervenors highlighted that LG&E/KU and Commission both acknowledged in the preceding case that QF rates for fixed tilt solar should serve as the basis for the energy and capacity components for NMS-2 credits. Joint Intervenors argued that to reverse 49

course now, without justification, is unreasonable and inconsistent with the Commission’s

own findings, and would deprive NMS-2 customers of fair compensation for the value that they provide to LG&E/KU and grid based on the updated costs that LG&E/KU are in fact paying for energy and an immediate capacity need. 50

LG&E/KU’s Response. LG&E/KU argued that the Commission should deny the

Joint Intervenors’ motion for two reasons: (1) applying the Joint Intervenors’ own reasoning, the avoided generation capacity component of Rider NMS-2 compensation rates should be zero; and (2) the Rider NMS-2 compensation rates the Commission approved are reasonable. LG&E/KU argued that the Commission’s final Orders provide 51 that such energy is as-available energy for QF purposes and thus not eligible for rates

based on legally enforceable obligations (LEOs); only when “BTM [behind-the-meter] customers are able to commit part of their capacity” to the serving utility would they qualify

for rates based on a LEO. LG&E/KU cited that under the Commission’s QF regulations, 52 as-available energy qualifies only for avoided energy cost-based rates; only QFs providing energy and capacity under a LEO may receive capacity payments. LG&E/KU 53 argued that it would thus be inconsistent to assert that QF rates should apply to Rider

NMS-2 rates but not the QF framework that undergirds those rates. LG&E/KU 54 highlighted that the Commission acknowledged there was evidence in the record to support different NMS-2 component values and elected to keep all components at their currently approved levels. 55

Joint Intervenors’ Reply. Joint Intervenors stated that the Commission rightly

denied both LG&E and KU’s proposed rates and conditions for QFs. 56 highlighted that the Commission has consistently set the same rates for avoided generating capacity for QFs and NM customer-generators; however, it has not at any time imposed the same conditions for QFs and NM customer-generators. 57 also highlighted that the settlement did not include the sole party representing the interests of net metering customers. 58

pleadings, and being otherwise sufficiently advised, the Commission finds that Joint

Intervenors’ request for rehearing should be denied. Joint Intervenors’ post-hearing position was as follows “despite believing that even greater compensation is merited,

and that LG&E/KU continue to fall short of the requirements of the Commission’s previous Order, the Joint Intervenors recommend the Commission approve the provision of the proposed stipulation regarding net metering rates.” Joint Intervenors were not 59

parties to the Stipulation; however, leaving the proposed net-metering rates at their current levels was recommended to by nearly all parties to this case. The Commission 60 required in its February 16, 2026 Orders of LG&E/KU that each utility should follow the

Commission’s previously approved methodologies when setting avoided cost rates and

they should file updated avoided cost components for NMS-2 along with its next QF filing. Unlike QF filings, which are required by regulation to be filed on a biennial basis 61 pursuant to 807 KAR 5:054, Section 5 (1)(a), there is no similar requirement related to net-metering rates. Therefore, Joint Intervenors’ Motion for Rehearing should be denied as they neither identified material errors or omissions nor findings that were unreasonable or unlawful that would compel rehearing. As discussed above, it is fair, just and reasonable for LG&E/KU to update their NMS-2 rates with their next QF filing.

LG&E/KU’s PETITION FOR RECONSIDERATION

Stipulation Reconsideration. LG&E/KU’s argued that the stipulation is reasonable in its totality without modification, and that the Commission should reconsider the modifications. LG&E/KU highlighted that the difference in the revenue requirements 62 calculated by the Commission varies less than 1 percent across LG&E/KU from those in the Stipulation, so there is very little impact to customers, but that the stated impact to LG&E/KU is significant. LG&E/KU stated that when the Commission rewrites or rejects 63 nearly every material term of a negotiated stipulation, it eliminates any meaningful

incentive for utilities and intervenors to pursue collaborative resolutions in future proceedings and that it jeopardizes the substantial, customer-focused benefits that are achievable only through compromise and negotiation. 64 Out-of-Record Information. LG&E/KU argued that the Commission’s decision to reject or modify nearly all the key terms in the Stipulation based upon uncertainty with regarding economic development and energy demand is perplexing. LG&E/KU took 65 issue with a footnote that cited to three sources regarding realities on the ground. 66 LG&E/KU stated that the Commission did not quote John Bevington, did not take issue with the projected revenues, and approved the Extremely High Load Factor (EHLF) tariff as reasons for the inconsistency. LG&E/KU argued that reliance on evidence outside 67

the record to alter the parties’ agreement has deprived LG&E/KU of the due process to

which they are entitled. 68 Sharing Mechanism Adjustment Clause. LG&E/KU argued that the sharing mechanism (Adjustment Clause SM) is essential to the stay-out. LG&E/KU stated that 69 they disagree that an Adjustment Clause SM review is akin to a full rate case and argued the latter requires considerably more time and cost by all interested parties. LG&E/KU 70 stated that the Commission should consider that (1) the alternative to Adjustment Clause

SM is at least one full-blown base rate case, and (2) the Commission has not authorized an ROE as low as 9.40 percent in many years, and LG&E/KU would not seek such a low ROE in a base rate case in what would otherwise be the stay-out period. LG&E/KU 71

explained that any potential bill impact would occur only if LG&E/KU’s financial

performance deteriorated to a level materially below the returns the Commission has consistently found reasonable in these and all other recent proceedings. LG&E/KU 72 argued that such an adjustment would not provide a windfall; it would merely prevent LG&E/KU from operating at returns the Commission itself has long recognized as inadequate. LG&E/KU averred that Adjustment Clause SM afforded LG&E/KU the 73 opportunity to delay any potential bill impact until after the stay-out period as any potential under-earning would be recorded but not billed immediately. 74 Adjustment Clause PGR. LG&E/KU argued that given that the Commission will review costs that are proposed to be recovered through the Adjustment Clause PGR, in addition to the monitoring requirements imposed in those certificates of public convenience and necessity cases, limiting the costs to estimations from prior cases (including estimates that are four years old) is unreasonable, unnecessary, and deprives LG&E/KU of the opportunity to recover their costs to serve customers. 75 Capitalization to Rate Base. LG&E/KU argued that moving from the capitalization method to the rate base method without adequate notice deprives them of cost recovery

and the opportunity to earn the authorized ROE. LG&E/KU argued that as implemented 76 by the Commission, this change, coupled with the cash working capital adjustments, results in the disallowance of $244 million of invested capital. LG&E/KU argued that 77

the Commission’s approach to implementing the rate base method is a material adverse

change that denies prudent cost recovery and is expected to prevent LG&E/KU from achieving either the stipulated ROE or the lower ROE prescribed in the final Orders. 78 LG&E/KU argued that the Commission has approved the capitalization method for more than forty years and no party presented a novel argument in these cases that capitalization is inappropriate. LG&E/KU averred that allowing LG&E/KU with a 79 reasonable period to prepare for and implement a fundamental shift away from that longstanding framework is necessary. 80 LG&E/KU explained that the problem is compounded by excluding Commission- approved regulatory assets and liabilities from rate base, while at the same time, including the associated accumulated deferred income taxes (ADIT). LG&E/KU explained that 81 this creates an unreasonable inconsistency: LG&E/KU are being denied a return while customers are receiving a return (on the associated ADIT). 82

-19- Case No. 2025-00114

LG&E/KU stated that unless the Commission reconsiders its orders, LG&E/KU will be denied an annual return of $11.0 million while customers will receive a return of $2.7 million. LG&E/KU described that if regulatory assets and liabilities are permitted 83 inclusion in rate base, an increase of $11.0 million is needed to the revenue requirement and if regulatory assets and liabilities are not permitted inclusion in rate base, an increase of $2.7 million is needed to the revenue requirement. LG&E/KU also argued that the 84

exclusion is inconsistent with the Commission’s prior treatment of the issue. 85

Mill Creek 2 Stay-Open Costs. LG&E/KU argued that the Commission’s disallowance of Mill Creek 2 stay-open costs incurred prior to its February 16, 2026 LG&E Electric Order is unreasonable and arbitrary and that the Commission has twice determined that continued operation of Mill Creek 2 benefits customers. LG&E/KU 86 argued that limiting recovery solely on the date of the Commission’s Orders lacks any rational basis and unnecessarily penalizes LG&E from making timely investments required to preserve the reliability of Mill Creek 2. LG&E/KU argued that the 87

Commission’s disallowance of the stay-open costs is similar to its disallowance of Kentucky Power’s transmission expense, which was held unlawful and unreasonable by

the Franklin Circuit Court. LG&E/KU argued that the Commission retains full oversight 88

and authority with respect to all Mill Creek 2 stay open costs, regardless of whether those costs were incurred before or after the date of the Final Order. 89

Return on Equity. LG&E/KU argued that the reduction to ROE is unreasonable. 90 LG&E/KU argued that the evidence in the record does not support the Commission’s finding that the mechanisms reduce LG&E/KU’s risk. LG&E/KU highlighted that “The 91 Commission concluded that ‘any increased risk LG&E/KU is assuming for the volatility in the remaining costs it expects to incur over the next two and a half years does not warrant such an increase in its allowed return.’” LG&E/KU stated there is no explanation 92 regarding what such an increase represents. LG&E/KU argued that the ordered 93 9.775 percent ROE is also lower than ROEs recently awarded or approved by the Commission. 94 Paperless Billing. LG&E/KU argued that by rejecting the proposal to move all

existing customers with an email on file to paperless billing, LG&E/KU’s billing costs will

be approximately $761,526 greater than projected in the test year. It does not appear 95 that the Commission included this increase in the revenue requirements it calculated. 96

LG&E/KU argued that failing to do so is unreasonable because LG&E/KU should be permitted to recover the mailing costs associated with customer bills. 97 Restricted Stock Units. LG&E/KU argued that the exclusion of restricted stock units (RSUs) in the revenue requirement is unreasonable. LG&E/KU argued that the 98

Commission’s conclusion is unsupported by any evidence in the record and it rests on

conjecture about employee motivation as there is no testimony or documentation demonstrating that RSUs are tied to shareholder benefit. LG&E/KU argued that the 99 record establishes that the RSUs are time-based awards designed to promote employee retention. 100

IT Implementation Costs. LG&E/KU stated that despite noting the clear benefits of utilizing deferral accounting for the software implementation costs, the Commission— without explanation—approved deferral accounting “only for the amounts through December 31, 2026.” LG&E/KU explained that these costs will be incurred through 101 2029, and the customer benefits of amortizing these expenses applies equally to costs incurred in 2026 as those incurred in 2027 and beyond and asked the Commission to reconsider its position for all IT implementation costs incurred through 2029. 102

Qualifying Facility Rates. LG&E/KU argued that the calculation of QF avoided capacity costs erroneously assumes baseload capacity will be avoided. LG&E/KU 103 argued that they do not have seasonal or peak avoided capacity costs, do not participate in Regional Transmission Organizations’ seasonal capacity auctions, and costs associated with capacity are the same in all hours. LG&E/KU argued that it is arbitrary 104 and unreasonable to deem LG&E/KU’s load growth projections unreliable for purposes of rejecting the overall Stipulation, while simultaneously treating those same projections as credible when rejecting LG&E/KU’s avoided cost calculations. 105

Job Benefits. LG&E/KU argued that the Commission should reconsider this portion of its final Orders and issue orders on reconsideration that correctly state its lack of jurisdiction over jobs benefits and rescind any obligation for LG&E/KU to consider such matters in future NMS-2 related cases. 106

Terminal Net Salvage and Miscellaneous Revenues. LG&E/KU stated that in

examining the Commission’s revenue requirement calculations, it appears the Commission may not have removed terminal net salvage amounts for KU’s Unit 3 at the

Brown Generating Facility even though LG&E/KU agreed to that removal as part of the Stipulation. LG&E/KU stated that it appears that the Commission may not have 107

considered the changes in miscellaneous revenues, including those resulting from

changes in special charges ordered by the Commission, shown in Schedule M in each case when it calculated the revenue requirements for each utility. 108

The Attorney General’s Response. The Attorney General argued that the

Stipulation achieves reasonable rates. The Attorney General highlighted that 109

LG&E/KU serves most of the manufacturing sector of Kentucky’s economy. The 110

Attorney General stated that the Stipulation brings a measure of certainty to all ratepayers, but it is particularly important for industrial customers. The Attorney General also highlighted that this is an unprecedented time in the utility sector, requiring extraordinary capital spending by utilities. The Attorney General 111

stated that he understands, as he knows the Commission does, that utilities having “steel in the ground” is vital to meeting Kentucky’s energy needs. The Attorney General 112

argued that this need for new infrastructure must be balanced with rate stability. The 113 Attorney General explained that the overarching issue during the negotiations was to present the Commission with recommendations that would maximize ratepayer savings while at the same time maintaining rate stability. The Attorney General stated that as 114

a result of denying Adjustment Clause SM, a new base rate case will be filed sometime this year, and likely another one within the next three years. 115 The Attorney General averred that the Commission rejected material terms of the Stipulation, placing the bargained-for ratepayer benefits in jeopardy. The Attorney 116 General argued that the Commission should not substantially alter a settlement by cherry- picking the terms it likes and expect the utility to honor its bargain. The Attorney 117 General pointed out that this is the current situation; and LG&E/KU were justified in walking away from the Stipulation if the Commission lets its current order stand. The 118 Attorney General stated that the Commission must decide if ratepayers are better served with the Stipulation or without it. 119

KIUC’s Response. KIUC highlighted that the rate increases under the Stipulation

and the Commission Orders are nearly identical. KIUC stated that if LG&E/KU are 120 successful in their petition for reconsideration, then the rate increases authorized in the Orders may exceed those in the Stipulation. KIUC stated that LG&E/KU will have 121 significantly reduced incentive in the future to settle if their agreements can be completely

rewritten. KIUC also stated that the Commission never compared the Stipulation to 122 LG&E/KU’s pre-compromise litigation position. 123 KIUC also stated that a 2.5 year case stay-out incentivizes LG&E/KU to control costs and results in stable rates. KIUC highlighted that for the most recent 4.75 years 124

(2021 to the third quarter of 2025), KU’s electric rates increased by only 8.11 percent, and LG&E’s electric rates increased by only 10.51 percent. KIUC stated that KIUC’s 125

membership prefers the stability of a stay-out coupled with the Adjustment Clause SM, as opposed to more rate cases. KIUC also argued that the Adjustment Clause SM has 126 certain inherent advantages compared to three rate cases; Commission time, effort, and cost will be a fraction with the Adjustment Clause SM. KIUC also stated that Stipulation 127 makes the regulatory process more efficient for the Commission, LG&E/KU, and ratepayers and also promotes stability and predictability, which is reflected in credit ratings and the cost of debt. KIUC argued that if a settlement contains mistakes, then 128 the Commission must fix them, but on issues that are matters of degree, the Commission

should give settlements the benefit of the doubt. KIUC highlighted that this is FERC’s 129 position. 130

KYSEIA’s Response. KYSEIA argued that LG&E/KU’s request for unconditional

acceptance of the non-unanimous Stipulation is improper if not unlawful and should be denied. KYSEIA pointed out that LG&E/KU failed to identify through the Joint Petition 131 or otherwise point to any language in the Stipulation itself through which they reserved the rights to enforce a Stipulation from which they have unconditionally withdrawn. 132 KYSEIA stated that the Commission, through its initial Orders, supplied ample sound reasons why the Stipulation could not be accepted in its entirety and required modification to meet the requirements of KRS Chapter 278. KYSEIA highlighted that LG&E/KU’s 133 arguments concerning Adjustment Clause SM is without merit as it was a request to relitigate a matter addressed in the Orders, and highlighted that the Adjustment Clause SM was designed in the Stipulation, and not the application. KYSEIA argued that 134

LG&E/KU’s argument concerning alleged out-of-record evidence is a gross

mischaracterization of the Orders and is without merit. KYSEIA argued that the 135

Commission’s explanation does not adjudicate any specific issue concerning expected

demand; therefore, it does not fall within the scope of an adjudicative fact. KYSEIA 136

argued that LG&E/KU’s argument concerning QFs is without merit, and stated that

KYSEIA fully addressed and explained LG&E/KU’s current capacity need in its Combined Post-Hearing Brief, and it again asserts these arguments and incorporates them into this pleading by reference. 137

Joint Intervenors’ Response. Joint Intervenors argued that the Commission should reject LG&E/KU’s overarching rehearing request, as their request is an attempt to

relitigate the reasonableness of the Stipulation, they present no new evidence, nor do they correct any material errors or omissions. The Joint Intervenors also pointed out 138 that it was questionable whether the Commission could approve the Stipulation after

LG&E/KU’s withdrawal from it. Joint Intervenors stated that the Commission 139

reasonably exercised its discretion and authority. Joint Intervenors argued that the 140 Commission’s modifications to LG&E/KU’s authorized return on equity are well-supported by the record and generously compensate out-of-state investors. 141 stated that if the Commission were to grant rehearing on the issue of the appropriate ROE for such riders, the Commission should also set an appropriate schedule for submission

of testimony on that issue from all interested parties, and further hearing on related matters. 142 Joint Intervenors highlighted that, in the February 16, 2026 Orders, the Commission rejected the proposed Sharing Mechanism on several well-reasoned bases. Joint Intervenors pointed out that LG&E/KU now urge the Commission to 143 change its mind, but LG&E/KU did not address several of the core reasons why the Commission rejected Adjustment Clause SM. Joint Intervenors highlighted that 144 Adjustment Clause SM would improperly guarantee a certain level of ROE and LG&E/KU did not prove that Adjustment Clause SM is needed to maintain LG&E/KU’s financial position during the stay-out period. 145 Joint Intervenors argued that the Commission’s modifications of the Adjustment Clause PGR are reasonable, lawful, and adequately supported by the record, and that LG&E/KU have failed to identify any basis for reverting the Commission’s modifications. Joint Intervenors argued that the Commission should deny rehearing 146 and affirm disallowance of Adjustment Clause PGR recovery for Mill Creek 2 costs incurred prior to the February 16, 2026 Order establishing new rates. 147 argued that there is no principled basis to argue that LG&E/KU have suffered a loss, are

entitled to special treatment, or are somehow being penalized. Joint Intervenors stated 148 that all the Commission has done with respect to 2025 Mill Creek 2 expenses is reasonably apply the filed rate doctrine. Joint Intervenors requested that if the 149 Commission grants rehearing, LG&E/KU must supply evidentiary support for claimed $7.5 million Mill Creek 2 costs at issue. Joint Intervenors also pointed out that the Mill 150 Creek 2 Adjustment Clause proposal and related costs were not part of the Stipulation, and contrary statements in the final Order should be corrected. 151 pointed out that the Commission’s February 16, 2026 Order inaccurately stated that Adjustment Clause Mill Creek 2 “was agreed to pursuant to the catch-all provision set

forth in the amendment to the Stipulation”; however, the “Stipulation specifically does not address” a Mill Creek 2 Adjustment Clause. 152

Joint Intervenors argued that the Commission properly recognized that at least so long as LG&E/KU have a capacity need, they must compensate QFs for avoided capacity value. Joint Intervenors also argued that the Commission’s orders to consider job 153 benefits is lawful, and already settled. Joint Intervenors argued that as LG&E/KU offer 154 no reason to reject the established precedent of the Commission reaffirmed in this Order,

and attempt only to relitigate an issue settled now for nearly five years, LG&E/KU’s petition on this matter should be rejected by the Commission. 155 Joint Intervenors averred that making awards of stock time-based does not make them independent of financial measures. Joint Intervenors argued that the 156 Commission properly rejected inclusion of the Long-Term Incentive Compensation in the form of Restricted Stock Units, and should reject the attempt by LG&E/KU to relitigate this issue on rehearing. Joint Intervenors also stated that record evidence supports the 157 Commission’s modifications to the stipulation, and a passing reference to a few news articles does not change that fact or render the proceeding unfair. 158

LG&E/KU’s Reply. LG&E/KU contested and responded to several of the points

brought up by the Joint Intervenors and KYSEIA, and reiterated its arguments in support of rehearing. LG&E/KU stated if the Commission grants LG&E/KU’s request to 159 approve the Stipulation as filed, the companies will comply with the Stipulation as filed, including its stay-out provisions and can do so either voluntarily or by agreeing to an amendment to the Stipulation with the Stipulating Parties. 160

information before rendering a decision on each issue. The Commission also notes that the granting of the request for reconsideration for the purpose of gathering additional information should not be construed as making a finding on the merits of the rehearing motion as it merely allows for further proceedings to investigate the allegations. To facilitate obtaining additional information, the Commission, on its own motion, finds that a procedural schedule should be established for the orderly processing of the rehearing request in this case. In reviewing the responses, the Commission agrees with the Joint Intervenors’ argument that the Commission’s LG&E Electric February 16, 2026 Order inaccurately stated that the Mill Creek 2 Adjustment Clause “was agreed to pursuant to the catch-all

provision set forth in the amendment to the Stipulation”; however the “Stipulation specifically does not address” this issue. The Commission finds that this statement 161

should be stricken from the record and replaced with “In relation to the Mill Creek 2 Adjustment Clause, the Signing Parties clarified in the Amended Stipulation that the Stipulation does not address or include Adjustment Clause MC2 and therefore the Signing Parties are not limited in the positions they may take in these proceedings regarding Adjustment Clause MC2. ” 162
