The Empire District Electric Company (Empire) has filed a request with the Missouri Public Service Commission to adjust the fuel adjustment charge (FAC) on the bills of its electric customers.
Empire has made two filings. In its first filing (Case No. ER-2020-0311), Empire proposes to adjust the FAC to reflect fuel and purchased power costs for the six month period of September 2019 through February 2020. The second case is Empire’s true-up filing (Case No. EO-2020-0312).
For a residential customer using 1,000 kWh (1,000 kilowatt-hours) of electricity a month, Empire states these two filings will result in an increase in the FAC of approximately $2.71 a month, for a monthly FAC of approximately $1.21.
The proposed change would take effect on June 1, 2020. The FAC for a residential customer using 1,000 kWh dropped by approximately $5.01 a month in December 2019.

Empire area customers will continue to pay more for decades of inbred leadership at the Company and Public Service Commission...
That's the Missouri way!
