FERC to Review Possible PacifiCorp Contract Cancellation
LCG, June 26, 2002-A Federal Energy Regulatory Commission judge will determine whether or not PacifiCorp may renegotiate or cancel electricity contracts signed last summer.The Portland utility signed contracts for this year for up to $262 per MWh from five energy traders. The utility claims that the prices are unfair and therefore illegal.The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission placed a $92 per MWh cap on electricity prices in the region on June 19 last year, just days after some of PacifiCorp's contracts were signed. Current prices in the area are less than $40 per MWh.FERC will appoint a judge to the case by the middle of July, and the companies will be given 30 days to settle disputes. PacifiCorp wants to cancel or renegotiate contracts with Reliant Resources Inc., Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc., Williams Cos Inc., Enron Corp., and El Paso Corp.The contracts in question involve electricity to be transmitted between July 1 and September 30 of this year.Scottish Power Plc. owns the Portland-based utility.
