M12792 · NSPI DRO Appeal - Meter/Billing Issues - Centre for Adults in Progressive Employment Society (CAPE)
AI summary
  • The Nova Scotia Energy Board issued two sets of Information Requests (IR-1 and IR-2) on July 24, 2026, directed separately to Nova Scotia Power Inc and to Cape Society (Centre for Adults in Progressive Employment), with responses due August 17, 2026.
  • IRs to NS Power probe the account history at 40 Lower MacLean Street, Glace Bay, including the installation date and recertification timeline of meter #2294813, the nature of that meter, and the basis for a billing multiplier of 40 applied throughout the disputed bills.
  • Board Staff also questioned NS Power on four estimated bills issued in May, July, September and November 2025, seeking detailed methodology for each estimate and asking whether the presence of two industrial Heat Pumps on site — first noted by NS Power on March 25, 2026 — influenced those estimates.
  • IRs to CAPE Society (Ms. Ashlee Wiseman) reference NS Power's Billing Procedures regulations governing the step-by-step meter dispute and testing process, and ask whether a meter test was ever requested or offered, and whether CAPE wishes to proceed with one now.
  • CAPE Society is also asked to confirm when the industrial heat pumps were installed, whether NS Power was notified at installation, and whether any other new electrical equipment was added to the property since the account opened in March 2021.
