In order to provide the special reduced rates mandated by section one of this article and still maintain the integrity of the earnings of the utilities offering service under these rates, the commission shall each year, beginning in the year one thousand nine hundred eighty-four, determine, upon application by any affected utility, that utility's revenue deficiency resulting from the special reduced rates.

(2) After allowance of a tax credit pursuant to the provisions of article thirteen-f of chapter eleven, a utility's remaining revenue deficiency, if any, resulting from the special reduced rates, shall be allowed as a tax credit against the liability of the utility pursuant to the provisions of section eleven, article twenty-four of chapter eleven.
