PE Plans Gas Rate Hike For Delaware County Areas
Philadelphia Electric Co asked the state Public Utility Commission to approve a $38.7 million gas rate increase, 11.3 percent, raising the average residential heating bill from 723 to 830 annually. The request covers 288,000 gas customers across several counties, with about 87,000 in the Delaware Division. A separate steam-rate rise of $6.2 million, 7.9 percent, targets 605 users in central and west Philadelphia. The proposed gas increase could take effect November 27, with final decision possibly by June 1982 due to a seven month suspension.
