Texas Companies Admit Overscheduling
LCG, March 27, 2002-The names of five of the six Texas companies allegedly involved in overscheduling last year were made public on Monday.Republican legislator Steve Wolens called on the Texas Public Utilities Commission to release the names of companies being investigated. The sixth company cites market rules and refuses to publicly announce itself, although according to the Dallas Morning News, speculation has been focused on Enron as a likely candidate. The other five companies are American Electric Power Company, Reliant Energy Inc., Mirant Corporation, Constellation Power Source, and TXU Corporation.These five companies insist that overscheduling was accidental. Reliant says that the financial implications of their actions are insignificant. Mirant and Constellation have not commented on the size of their mistakes, and TXU announced Friday that it overscheduled by 5 percent and had refunded the $4 million it made from that 5 percent. The Texas Public Utilities Commission says that the overscheduling has not had any serious effects on consumers. However, since providers are charged for congestion by market share, penalties could be unfairly allotted. DD> Investigations of last year's market inconsistencies are ongoing.
