Subsequent Events [Abstract] |
Subsequent Event | Subsequent EventOn October 1, 2021, NIPSCO retired R.M. Schahfer Generating Station Units 14 and 15. The net book value of the retired units was reclassified from "Net Property, Plant and Equipment," to current and long-term ''Regulatory Assets.'' The total net book value of R.M. Schahfer Generating Station's coal Units 14 and 15 and other associated plant retired is estimated to be approximately $600 million. The December 2019 NIPSCO electric rate case order allows for the recovery of, and on, the net book value of the station by the end of 2032 and implements a revenue credit for the retired units. The credit is based on the difference between the net book value of Units 14 and 15 upon retirement and the last base rate case proceeding. The credit will be provided to customers until new base rates are determined.
