Pioneer Supply Its Utah Power and Light Co. has proposed a new program to the public service commissions in Utah, Idaho and Wyoming in what company officials call an attempt to reduce electricty costs to customers. The program, if adopted, would transfer the costs of new power plants to the new customers who consume the power, rather than these costs to all pro-rat- e customers.

The initial base period would probably be 1981. Rate increases for present customers would be based on just higher operating, maintenance, replacement and fuel costs, Pendleton added. UP&L President Harry Blundell, in a company news release, said current pricing for electricity is lower than the cost of new in- stallations because the older facilities were built at less expense. Under present pricing, cost of the new is lumped with the old for an average price. In the proposal, we are asking the new customer to pay the costs needed to serve him, Blundell said. Under the proposed conservation program, the utility would provide interest-fre- e financing for home improvements designed to conserve energy. Such improvements would include installing insulation, storm doors and windows and other weatherization lm- - provements. Blundell said current soaring had a profound, negative effect on the companys earnings. The days of cheap and abundant electricity are over, he added. inflation Blundell cited higher fuel, operating, construction, financing and pollution control costs as reasons for the company asking for frequent rate increases. In 1971, we built generating units for $161 per kilowatt of capacity, he added. In 1983, the cost will approach $1,000. The proposals were presented to the various regulatory com- missions in the three states in preliminary form.
