Total residential Standard Offer Service (SOS) rate for January: $0.090451 per kilowatt-hour (kWh).

• Winter Residential Energy Charge: $0.0854 per kWh
• January Residential Power Cost Adjustment (PCA): $0.005051 per kWh

SMECO’s PCA for January was 5.87 percent of the current average annual base energy.

SMECO must revise its base energy rate if the residential PCA for three consecutive months is 5 percent more or less than the base energy rate. Since SMECO’s PCA for January was over the trigger level of 5 percent for one month, SMECO’s base energy rate will remain unchanged at this time.
