I. Parties.

OG&E is incorporated within the State of Oklahoma, is subject to the regulatory authority of this Commission with respect to its retail rates and charges within the State of Oklahoma, and has the following address as its principal place of business:

All correspondence, pleadings and communications with respect to this proceeding should be directed to all named counsel at their respective addresses.

II. Facts.

A. Applicant’s current base rates and charges were approved by the Commission in Cause No. PUD 201100087 by its Order No. 599558 issued July 9, 2012 based on a test year ending December 31, 2010. Applicant is not earning sufficient operating income to produce a fair and reasonable return on capital or a fair and reasonable return on the value of its plant, property and other assets dedicated to public utility service within the state of Oklahoma. Applicant must have increased rates and consequent additional revenues if Applicant is to continue to provide adequate and reliable electric service and earn a fair, just and reasonable rate of return on its investment.

B. On July 28, 2015, pursuant to OAC 165:70-3-7 of the Commission's Minimum Standard Filing Requirements, OG&E filed its Notice of Intent, advising the Commission of its intent to file an Application seeking Commission review of OG&E’s rates, charges and tariffs for retail electric service within the State of Oklahoma.

C. OG&E brings this Application, based upon a test year ending June 30, 2015, to initiate proceedings to review the rates, charges and tariffs of OG&E, and for the establishment of fair and reasonable rates and charges upon completion of the Commission’s review. OG&E tenders with the filing of this Application its complete Application Package as required by OAC 165:70-3-1,

Application – Cause No. PUD 201500273 3 of 5

and following the filing of the Application Package, the Company will provide the Public Utility Division its Supplemental Package as required by OAC 165:70-5-20.

D. OG&E is requesting a change in its rates that will result in an increase of $92.5 million when compared to OG&E’s rates that were implemented in August of 2012. OG&E expects this change will be effective no later than June 2016. The request is for rates sufficient to achieve a 10.25 percent return on 53% percent equity, which Applicant believes to be a fair, just and reasonable rate.

E. OG&E also proposes to: (i) include approximately $2.2 billion in rate base for capital investments made since rates were last approved based on a 2010 test year; (ii) recognize O&M expenses that have increased since rates were last approved; and (iii) recognize all known and measurable changes and other requests for relief as outlined in testimony.

III. Legal Authority.

The Commission has jurisdiction in these proceedings by virtue of Article IX, Sections 18 through 35 of the Constitution of the State of Oklahoma, the Oklahoma statutes, including 17 O.S. §151 et seq.,17 O.S. §250 et seq.,and the Commission’s rules.

IV. Relief Requested.

WHEREFORE, premises considered, OG&E requests that the Commission, issue an order authorizing Applicant to adjust its retail rates subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission by the amount hereinabove set forth, authorizing Applicant to file changes in tariffs and terms and conditions of service, as well as all other relief requested in the testimony and exhibits filed by OG&E in this cause and for such other and further relief as the Commission deems appropriate under the circumstances.
