National Grid’s electric utility business is anything but static.

The utility is expected to file a new rate case with state regulators next year that could seek an increase in delivery charges and also alter the company’s traditional rate structure to help it maintain its revenue base even as consumers use less energy.

And the company is continuing its $2.5 billion plan to upgrade its New York electricity transmission system, while also proposing pilot programs in the Albany and Syracuse areas to explore the potential benefits of “smart grid” technologies.
