Morgan County Rural Electric Association, Inc., Notice of Proposed Change in Rates Charged for Electric Service:
Effective February 1, 2024
Dear MCREA Member,
This notice is to officially inform you that the board of directors of Morgan County Rural Electric Association, Inc., is proposing certain changes to rates charged for electric service purchased on or after February 1, 2024.
The Morgan County REA Board of Directors’ guiding objective is to make electric energy available to the consumer-members of the cooperative at the lowest possible cost that is consistent with sound economic and business practices. As was announced last summer, our wholesale power provider, Tri-State Generation & Transmission, increased the wholesale rate charged to MCREA for purchased power by 6.1% as of January 1, 2024. The costs for MCREA to distribute that power have also increased significantly.
In response to these changes, an independent cost-of-service study was conducted late last year to guide a necessary rate change. As a result of the 2024 wholesale power rate increase and the recent cost-of-service study information, the MCREA Board of Directors has proposed an average overall rate increase of 4.96% for the 2024 electric rate classes.
It is MCREA’s mission to serve members by providing safe, reliable energy as affordably as possible. On behalf of the Morgan County REA Board of Directors, thank you for your continued support of your local electric cooperative.
Sincerely,
Dave Frick, General Manager
