Eastalco Faces Higher Share Of Potomac Edison Rate Hike
Potomac Edison filed new rates after a Maryland PSC decision granting 6.2 million of a 34 million requested annual increase. Eastalco Aluminum in Buckeystown would see 3.25 percent, about a $160,000 monthly rise, while typical residential customers face smaller increases. Eastalco, accounting for 30 percent of PE’s load and with bills above 4.9 million monthly, has warned of capacity cuts and potential layoffs as it seeks leniency and contemplates a swing plant status amid stiff international competition and a strong dollar. The PSC ordered Eastalco's rate higher than average but urged tempering. a Bath County surcharge may follow when that project goes online.
