AEP Base Rate Case

STOP THE RATE HIKES!

AEP is raising your rates yet again

What is happening?

Electric rates have already more than DOUBLED in the past 15 years and yet AEP is seeking another rate increase for West Virginians.

Under the proposal, there would be an overall bill increase of up to $23.74 per month, or approximately 13.5%, for a residential customer using 1,000 kWh per month. The average West Virginia residential customer uses 1,123 kWh per month. AEP also has introduced a proposal to spread out the cost over time, which may reduce the impact, but all details are not yet available.

Take 2 minutes to write a letter to the PSC asking them to say NO to these harmful changes and say YES to helping us reduce our energy bills.

Solar Ethics Pledge

Solar United Neighbors of West Virginia (SUN) and West Virginians for Energy Freedom (WV4EF) have created a Solar Installer Code of Ethics intended to protect the West Virginia solar industry, promote reputable companies, and help ensure that consumers can have confidence in their installers.

SIGN THE PLEDGE

West Virginians for Energy Freedom believes:

West Virginians should have the freedom to invest in and benefit from locally-owned, renewable, and efficient energy technology.

The state government and our utilities should act in the best interest of West Virginians by empowering us to reduce and manage our own energy bills. This will boost the state's economy through good, local energy jobs, and provide greater energy security and safety to our state.
