MI Consumers Energy Electric prices are increasing
Consumers Energy, the regulated utility monopoly, has received permission from the MI Public Service Commission (MPSC) to raise prices.
Consumers Energy, as a regulated monopoly, must show that its costs have increased thereby justifying a cost increase. The MPSC acts to ensure that utilities, which operate as a monopoly, have oversight over their expenditures. The MPSC must certify that expenditures are used to actually provide or improve service to customers. Once approved by the MPSC, the utility will collect the increase on your next bill.
