Standard Offer Service rate update
Total residential Standard Offer Service (SOS) rate for September: $0.110682 per kilowatt-hour (kWh).
- Summer Residential Energy Charge: $0.1057 per kWh
- September Residential Power Cost Adjustment (PCA): $0.004982 per kWh
SMECO’s PCA for September was 4.71% greater than the current residential base SOS rate.
SMECO must revise its base energy rate if the PCA for three consecutive months is 5 percent more or less than the base energy rate. Since SMECO’s PCA for September was 4.71% of the current average annual base energy charge and that is not over the trigger level of 5 percent, SMECO’s base energy rate will remain unchanged at this time.
