AI summary The Municipal class includes municipal electric utilities that purchase wholesale electricity from NS Power and distribute it within their service territories. Since 2007, these utilities have had the option to source electricity from third-party providers through the Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT). Some utilities have shifted to 100% third-party supply, reducing their load, but NS Power must still provide backup capacity for these utilities.
