Residential Rate Design Changes
This rate class’s new design includes two charge categories: kilowatt-hour charges and facilities charges. Central Electric Cooperative’s (CEC) fifth and final phase of its gradual rate redesign became effective January 1. On February bills, residential members will see a $4.4 increase in their facilities’ charges while the energy charge remains unchanged. This rate class accounts for most memberships, approximately 89% in 2022. Kilowatt-hour rate projections include no assumptions about inflation or future Bonneville Power Administration rate increases.
