We reviewed the tariffs of large utilities that offer a TOU
Generation costs are almost always recovered on a time-differentiated basis
Distribution costs are recovered through a time-varying charge in roughly half of the cases
Transmission costs are recovered through a time-varying charge in only one case
Ten other TOU rates offered by large IOUS were researched, though information on the unbundled costs
was not available
