Reeves proposes CMP set one-for-all rate
State Senator Bruce M Reeves proposed Central Maine Power charge a flat rate to all customers leading to about 19 percent savings for an average homeowner. He argues the plan would encourage conservation, reduce the need for new facilities, and use existing plants more efficiently while preserving possible time-of-day discounts for industry. Reeves faces cross-examination as the rate case resumes in Augusta.
