Niagara Mohawk seeks monthly power rate hike across New York
Niagara Mohawk Power Corp filed a petition with the Public Service Commission in Albany seeking increases in domestic and commercial electricity rates. Domestic customers would pay 25 to 29 cents more per month depending on usage, with a July 3 effective date, while commercial rates would rise about 225000 dollars annually. The move aims to uniform rates across Central Eastern and Northern New York as part of a system wide adjustment.
