Total Service Long Run Incremental Cost (TSLRIC)
Total Service Long Run Incremental Cost ("TSLRIC") is a forward-looking cost based methodology that may be used by the Commission when conducting pricing review determinations. The Commission has carried out consultation with industry on how to define acceptable parameters and assumptions in the application of TSLRIC, and has published two discussion papers and a principles paper on this subject.
