Duke seeks higher Palmetto rate amid public hearing
Duke Power Company asks the South Carolina Public Service Commission for a largely 1.GT per cent rate increase in Palmetto State customers amid a broader request first filed March 2. The utility seeks parity with North Carolina rates, but would shift more cost to commercial and high volume industrial users while adding a fixed per kilowatt hour charge to cover coal costs. Duke cites rising costs and capital needs to fund construction and maintain bond ratings, noting a rate increase is needed after a prior 1B per cent rise 18 months ago.
