Frequently Asked Questions
The adjustment is necessary due to the significant increase in wholesale power costs. The increases are driven primarily by higher prices for natural gas and coal, the fuels used to generate most of BREC’s electricity, plus the impact of inflation (cost increases) on meters, poles, transformers, wires and other items required to keep the lights on.
BREC will implement a $6.00 increase to the Service Availability Charge and a 7-9% rate increase. This equates to an approximate $18 monthly increase for an average residential member using 1250 kWh.
