Electric Rates In State Hit By Council
BOSTON. Costs of electric power in Massachusetts are fantastically high, says Dermott P. Shea of the Consumers Council of Massachusetts. He urges a legislative study or commission to examine private utilities and notes inefficiencies among small power companies. He cites a figure that manufacturers pay about 90 million dollars yearly above the national average, and consumers face 20 to 30 percent higher rates. The issue, he argues, hurts the Commonwealth and its ability to compete.
