Henryetta area PSO customers are going to get an after-Christmas present in the form of a reduced bill in January.
According to Wayne Greene, PSO corporate communications officer, the reduction is on the fuel portion of all electric bills.
He explained the monthly bill of the typical residential customer who uses 1,100 kilowatt-hours per month will go down $15.53 or 11 percent.
The lower bills are the result of reduced natural gas prices and PSO’s investments in fuel-free generating facilities.
“Recent high fuel costs have been challenging for many of our customers, and we’re happy that lower prices and our investments in fuel-free power will ease those energy expenses,” said PSO President and Chief Operating Officer Leigh Anne Strahler. “In the world of commodity prices, what goes up, can come down. It did, and our customers are going to benefit.”
