Lorain Electric Rate Plan Seen Lowering Elyria Bills
Lorain approves a five year electric rate schedule with an expected average monthly bill decrease of 40 to 55 cents for 90 percent of Elyria homes. Elyria rates will reflect Lorain economies as consumption rises. The change, effective about April 1, stems from a sliding rate where higher use lowers per kilowatt hour charges.
