Iowa Electric seeks interim and total rate hikes
Iowa Electric Light and Power Co. filed with the Iowa State Commerce Commission for an interim rate increase of 11.44 per bill for the average residential customer and higher charges for farms and commercial users. The company seeks a July 1 interim increase to boost annual revenue by about 7.5 million dollars and a total increase of roughly 11.4 million dollars, about 30.3 percent, with the interim portion to take effect July 4 and be subject to refund. The request cites deficient current revenues and aims to improve credit ratings, while noting prior ICC action and concerns over management inefficiencies.
