BC Hydro customers will be paying more for power this year.
Hydro has announced a 3.5% increase in payments. Spokesperson Mora Scott says the increase is part of a ten year rate plan, which gives customers an idea of how much they’ll pay for hydro.
The increase is expected to cost an extra $3.74 per household. Scott says finding power saving solutions is a good way to minimize the impact of the rate increase.
Scott says the increase is needed to maintain the high quality power and service.
