OPINION
LEDERBERG, Justice.
The Narragansett Electric Company (Narragansett or the company) has sought our review of a decision of the Public Utilities Commission (commission) that ordered the company to pay a $1.65 million refund to the company’s ratepayers. The refund represented Narragansett’s over-payments for transmission costs to New England Power Company (NEPCO) during 1997 to 1998. It is our conclusion that the commission did not err in ordering the refund to ratepayers, and therefore we affirm its decision.
