There are a lot of folks unhappy with We Energies’ plan to raise electric rates.
A crowd turned out yesterday at the last Public Service Commission hearings on the company’s proposed 13 percent rate hike.
The hike would mean about $14 more per month for the average customer.
People at the meeting said that’s too much, and said We Energies is too big and too powerful.
A We Energies spokesman says the rate hike is necessary to cover the cost of their switch to clean energy, and to cover the cost of inflation.
