Summary
The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio is reviewing a proposed Data Center Tariff (Schedule DCT) for the three FirstEnergy Ohio utilities, Ohio Edison, Cleveland Electric Illuminating and Toledo Edison. The Commission directed the utilities in May 2026 to file a tariff creating a separate customer class for data centers, and they filed it on 12 June 2026. Comments were due in August 2026. The case remains open and the tariff is a proposal, not an approved rate.
What this does not establish
- The utilities' application and proposed tariff sheets were not opened; the scope comes from the administrative law judge's 7 July 2026 entry.
- The 13 May 2026 Entry on Rehearing in Case No. 26-35-EL-RDR, which directed the filing, was not opened; the directive is described only as the 7 July 2026 entry describes it.
- The docket list opened on 23 September 2026 shows reply comments filed on 25 August 2026 as the latest filings and no Commission order after them.
- It is recorded as a regulatory or tariff proceeding: the proposed tariff is under Commission review; it is not a bill or an approved rate.
Unresolved questions
- The terms of the proposed Schedule DCT.
- Whether and when the Commission will approve, modify or reject the proposed tariff.
Relationships
Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
- No related action is recorded.
