We know your electric bill is probably
higher this summer - a lot higher - than it was
last year. Even though you're making an
honest effort to conserve electricity by doing
things like turning lights off, raising your air
conditioning thermostat and checking filters
regularly.
A higher electric bill isn't much of a re-
ward for that kind of effort. But, we want you
to understand the reasons for it, and why it's
important to continue using electric energy
wisely.
The main reason for higher bills is that
it's costing more to make electricity. Our rates
had to be increased early this year.
