N O T I C E Notice is hereby given, pursuant to Article IV, Section 21(D)(1) of the Louisiana Constitution, that on May 31, 2023, Entergy Louisiana, LLC (“ELL”), a public utility providing retail electric and gas service throughout the State of Louisiana, filed with the Louisiana Public Service Commission (“LPSC”) its Formula Rate Plan (“FRP”) Rider Schedule FRP Evaluation Report and Workpapers for Test Year 2022. The filing reflects an earned return on common equity (“EROE”) for the 2022 Evaluation Period/Test Year of 8.33%, which is below the approved FRP midpoint and, without consideration of the cap, would result in an increase to Base Rider FRP Revenue of approximately $70.7 million. However, after application of the cap approved by LPSC Order No. U-35565, Base Rider FRP Revenues are only being increased by $4.9 million. After accounting for all components of FRP Revenue, including amounts inside the bandwidth and subject to the cap as well as amounts which are adjusted outside of the bandwidth, the net increase is $85.2 million The resulting FRP factors to be applied to the respective ELL rate classes (including Legacy ELL and Legacy EGSL rate classes) effective for customer bills rendered on and after the first billing cycle of September 2023, are as follows:       Ln No. Rate Class Total ELL FRP Rate Adj.       1 ELL- Residential 81.6591% 2 ELL- Small General Service 78.9456% 3 ELL- Large General Service 79.5313% 4 ELL- Large Industrial Power Service 75.0703% 5 ELL- Large Load, High Load Factor Power Service 74.8169% 6 ELL- Large Industrial Service 76.9172% 7 ELL- Lighting 80.3628% 8 EGSL- Residential 76.4672% 9 EGSL- Small General Service 74.6051% 10 EGSL- General Service 74.5049% 11 EGSL- Large Power Service 69.8024% 12 EGSL- High Load Factor Service 69.6842% 13 EGSL- Municipal Water Pumping Service 74.4150% 14 EGSL- Street & Area Lighting 74.6771%       It is estimated that the proposed adjustment in rates will have the following effects upon applicable Legacy ELL customers’ typical monthly bills: for a Residential customer using 1,000 kWh the bill would change by approximately $2.27; for a Small General Service customer using 50 kW and 12,500 kWh the bill would change by approximately $26.37; for a Large General Service customer using 1,000 kW and 500,000 kWh the bill would change by approximately $633.97. It is estimated that the proposed adjustment in rates will have the following effects upon applicable Legacy EGSL customers’ typical monthly bills: for a Residential customer using 1,000 kWh the bill would change by approximately $1.42; for a Small General Service customer using 5000 kWh the bill would change by approximately $6.90; for a Large General Service customer using 500 kW and 255,500 kWh the bill would change by approximately $183.11.
