An Edison Electric Institute flash target shows a rate hike that would raise a typical residential bill by about 4.33 dollars a month for 580 kWh and 12.95 dollars for 2000 kWh, including fuel and taxes. If in effect July 1, 1978, Potomac Edison would still offer the lowest 1000 kWh monthly rate among Maryland’s major utilities at 46.45 versus 50.84 to 57.92 from peers.
