During 2008, we experienced flat electric residential sales, primarily driven by a decline in the NSP-Minnesota region.  We believe the flat sales growth is a reflection of a recent shift in customer behavior, in part, attributable to the overall economic conditions as well as conservation efforts.

During the third quarter, we experienced a decline in electric residential customer sales, particularly in the NSP-Minnesota region.  We believe the lower sales growth is a reflection of a recent shift in customer behavior, in part, attributable to the overall economic conditions as well as conservation efforts.

 

*   The year-to-date normalized sales growth amounts have been adjusted for leap day.

** Due to the low volume of natural gas sales for the third quarter, the firm gas sales increase is not a meaningful number or indicative of a trend.

Sales Growth

In addition to the impact of weather, customer sales levels in Xcel Energy's utility businesses can vary with economic conditions, energy prices, customer usage patterns and other factors. Weather-normalized sales growth for retail electric utility customers was 1.7 percent in 2007, and 1.8 percent in 2006. Weather-normalized sales growth for firm natural gas utility customers was approximately 0.8 percent in 2007, and (2.8) percent in 2006. Weather-normalized sales for 2008 are projected to grow between 1.8 percent and 2.2 percent for retail electric utility customers and 0.0 percent to 1.0 percent for retail natural gas utility customers.
