APCO can charge more for coal as SCC preps for request
News in Brief//July 28, 2008//
Appalachian Power Company has permission to begin recovering higher coal prices from Virginia customers before the State Corporation Commission hears the request.
The SCC said last week it would allow the company to begin billing Virginia customers a fuel assessment of nearly 12 percent more Sept. 1. It set a public hearing September 23 in Richmond on the request to increase in the fuel factor from 1.418 cents per kilowatt hour to 2.255 cents.
The request is one of three rate requests the SCC is considering for Appalachian, which has 1 million customers in Virginia, West Virginia and Tennessee.
