Maine PUC Sets New Default Services Rates

The Maine PUC has set the energy component for large non-residential Standard Offer rates at Central Maine Power and Bangor Hydro-Electric for the month of July.

The energy components are $0.03525/kWh for CMP and $0.03587/kWh for BHE.

The resulting "energy" prices included in the Standard Offer rate for July 2012 will be $0.043304/kWh for the CMP large class and $0.043000/kWh for the BHE large class. The energy prices reflect all Standard Offer components of the price that are billed on a kWh basis, including the above-listed energy components, line losses, and adders.

The total Standard Offer prices will include these energy prices plus the previously set capacity component, which for July 2012 is $2.951/kW-mo at both utilities.
