SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WGGB) – While Western Mass. Electric customers may be seeing a decrease in one portion of their monthly bill, they should expect an increase starting next week. Starting Monday, based on a rate approved by the Mass. Department of Public Utilities, residential customers will see a one cent per kilowatt-hour increase in their supply charge, from 7.315 cents to 8.317 cents. With the increase, the average residential customer, using 500 kilowatt-hours per month, will see their bill increase a little over $6.00, from $83.25 to $89.60. Small commercial and industrial customers will see an increase from 7.568 cents per kilowatt-hour to 7.775 cents per kilowatt-hour. The supply rate, which can change twice a year on July 1 and January 1, is a cost passed directly to the customer from Western Mass. Electric’s suppliers and WMECo experiences no profit from the fee.
