Standard Offer Service rate update

Total residential Standard Offer Service (SOS) rate for August: $0.114650 per kilowatt-hour (kWh).

• Summer Residential Energy Charge: $0.1057 per kWh
• August Residential Power Cost Adjustment (PCA): $0.008950 per kWh

SMECO’s PCA for August was 8.46% 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 August was 8.46% of the current average annual base energy charge and that is over the trigger level of 5 percent for one month, SMECO’s base energy rate will remain unchanged at this time.
