州长 Matt Meyer 支持审查 Delmarva 电力公司利润：为电费用户减负
特拉华州州长 Matt Meyer 10 月 21 日在 Dover 表示，支持审查 Delmarva 电力公司的利润模式。州公共辩护人办公室已向特拉华州公共服务委员会（PSC）提交请愿，要求审查该公司的股本回报率（ROE）。
请愿指出，Delmarva 目前的股本回报率接近 10%，其利润约占普通用户电费账单的 10% 以上。公共辩护人办公室认为，在居民电费负担沉重的背景下，这一利润水平应当接受监管审查。今年 6 月，该办公室曾要求公共服务委员会在六个月内就此提出请愿程序，如今正式提交。
Meyer 表示，州政府将推动让电费更可负担，监管机构对公用事业公司利润的审查是其中的一环。公共服务委员会将审理该请愿，决定是否启动对 Delmarva 费率与利润结构的正式审查。（GSM 据特拉华州州长办公室报道）
Gov. Matt Meyer Backs Review of Delmarva Power's Profits to Ease Customers' Bills
Delaware Gov. Matt Meyer said on Oct. 21 in Dover that he supports a review of Delmarva Power's profit model. The state Office of the Public Advocate has petitioned the Delaware Public Service Commission (PSC) to examine the utility's return on equity (ROE).
The petition notes that Delmarva's current return on equity is near 10 percent and that the company's profits account for more than 10 percent of a typical customer's electric bill. The Public Advocate's office argues that this level of profit warrants regulatory scrutiny at a time when residents face heavy energy bills. In June, the office had asked the PSC to open a petition process within six months; it has now formally filed.
Meyer said the state will push to make electric bills more affordable, and that regulatory review of utility profits is part of that effort. The PSC will consider the petition and decide whether to open a formal review of Delmarva's rates and profit structure. (GSM, based on reporting from the Office of the Governor of Delaware)
