Consumers Angry As Costs Climb Across Southeast
Southeast consumers face rising electric bills as rates jump across multiple states. Florida residents push back against fuel adjustments and price hikes from FP&L and others, while South Carolina, Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee see hearings and protests. TVA faced calls for probes as costs surge due to coal and fuel adjustments. Georgia Power, CP&L, and Alabama Power have sought or received sizable increases amid a broad regional power crunch.
