Submit Your Comments To the Public Service Commission
The Kentucky Public Service Commission is considering proposals from Louisville Gas & Electric (LG&E) and Kentucky Utilities (KU) that could raise your electric and gas rates.
When so many in our state are already struggling with the economic fallout of the pandemic, we cannot afford a 12 percent rate hike on our electric bills and a 9 percent increase on our gas bills.
Included in the request is an increase to the customer charge – the fee you pay before even turning on the lights. These higher charges punish older Kentuckians, who tend to use less electricity.
Utility rates are an essential pocketbook issue for Kentucky residents 50-plus and their families, many of us whom struggle to balance paying utility bills and other household expenses along with buying food and medicine.
Please submit written comments to the Public Service Commission to express your opposition to these rate hikes.
