Returns tax reform savings to customers as a bill credit.

📜 History & Background

AES Ohio's Tax Savings Credit Rider (D41) returns federal tax reform savings to customers, following the same logic as FirstEnergy's TSA rider. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduced the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, reducing the revenue requirement for regulated utilities. PUCO, consistent with orders issued to other Ohio utilities, directed AES Ohio to return excess tax collections through a customer credit rider. D41 became effective November 6, 2025 and delivers an ongoing credit to AES Ohio residential customers.

⚙️ How It Works

A fixed monthly credit of $0.74/month per residential customer, reducing your bill. The credit amount is calculated based on AES Ohio's rate base and the difference between old and new tax rates.

🔒 If You Switch Suppliers

Non-bypassable — the tax savings credit applies to all AES Ohio distribution customers regardless of supplier.
