In IURC Cause No. 45052, Vectren Energy Delivery requested IURC approval to:
- Build and operate a new natural gas-fired electric generating station,
- Upgrade its Culley 3 coal-fired generating unit to comply with federal environmental regulations, and
- Recover project costs through rates.
The IURC denied Vectren's proposed gas-fired plant and approved its requested coal upgrade for Culley 3 in an April 24, 2019 order.
The OUCC recommended denial. Our August 2018 news release summarizes the following testimony:
The OUCC filed more than 600 consumer comments with its testimony. An IURC field hearing was held in Evansville in July 2018. The OUCC issued a June 28, 2018 news release to invite public input.
The case file is available on the IURC's website.
