Residents See Lower Electric Bills in June
At a June summary hearing in Indianapolis the Indiana Public Service Commission approved rate changes for two Jackson County utilities. Rural Electric will cut rates by 5.5 cents per kWh, while Public Service Indiana lowers residential rates about 1.5 cents and raises commercial-industrial charges by 5.7 cents per 1,000 kWh. The PSC noted the reductions reflect higher wholesale fuel costs. Several other non generating utilities saw mixed changes. Central Indiana Gas Co. seeks about 3.7 million dollars in gas revenue increases.
