Consulting Services - Avoided Costs

The Public Service Commission of South Carolina seeks independent third‑party consultants to evaluate avoided‑cost filings for three utility dockets (Dominion Energy SC, Duke Energy Carolinas, Duke Energy Progress). The consultant will analyze rate calculations, prepare written reports with conclusions, assess utility cooperation, and be prepared to testify or be deposed before the Commission. The contract is a fixed‑price service (hourly rate) with travel reimbursements limited to GSA lodging rates and per‑diem meal caps, and the work will be performed at the PSC office in Columbia, SC. • Evaluate avoided‑cost methodologies and calculations for each docket. • Produce a comprehensive written report including conclusions and assessment of utility cooperation. • Appear for public interviews, depositions, or testimony as required; comply with ex‑parte prohibitions. • Provide certifications of independence, conflicts‑of‑interest disclosures, and maintain a valid South Carolina vendor registration.
