S Calif Edison Sues to Keep Power Forecasts Under Wraps

Southern California Edison is suing state regulators to keep its forecasts for electricity demand from being made public.

Edison filed suit Friday in Superior Court against the California Energy Commission. Southern California Edison is a unit of Edison International (EIX).

The utility contends that disclosing the projections of peak usage during the summers from 2006 to 2016 could give an unfair advantage to private power generators and other suppliers, and could increase rates for consumers.
