In re Complaint of Direct Energy Business LLC v. Duke Energy Ohio Inc., Case No. 2019-1058
Public Utilities Commission of Ohio

ISSUES:
- Does the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio have jurisdiction over a dispute about overpayments or underpayments to a regional transmission organization, or do such disputes fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission?
- Does R.C. 4905.22 entitle a competitive retail electric service provider to "adequate service" from a utility acting as a meter data management agent?
- Were the inaccurate data supplied in this case isolated and inadvertent such that it didn't constitute inadequate service?
- Does a rule in the Ohio Administrative Code invalidate a clause in a federal tariff that limits a utility's liability for its actions as a meter data management agent?
