LONDON--National Grid PLC (NG.LN) said Monday the New York Public Service Commission has issued an order approving a capital investment petition for $1.3 billion for its Niagara Mohawk utility, resulting in two additional years at current rates for customers.

The petition provides incremental revenues of $50 million in fiscal 2017 and $90 million in fiscal 2018, with no increase to customer bills through the use of deferred credits, National Grid said.

The natural-gas and electricity network operator said it has also received authority to issue up to $2.07 billion of new long-term debt for: refinancing maturing debt; replacing variable debt with fixed-interest debt; financing the capital needs of the business and for general corporate purposes.
