Gulf Power Looks To Lower Bills Just A Bit
February 11, 2012
Pointing to lower natural-gas costs, Gulf Power Company wants to trim customers’ monthly electric bills.
The Florida Public Service Commission on Tuesday will consider a Gulf Power proposal to pass along fuel savings to customers starting March 1. A residential customer who uses 1,000 kilowatt hours of electricity a month — a common measuring stick — would see a $3.33, or 2.6 percent, reduction, according to a PSC staff recommendation.
Power-plant fuel costs are a major component of electric bills and are passed through to customers. The PSC approved projected 2012 fuel costs in November, but the Pensacola-based Gulf Power sought a revision last month because of lower-than-expected gas prices.

Yes but the other forms of energy tend to put more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, making the world less inhabitable. (Besides, a few radioactive isotopes will give you more energy and interesting children,)
David for the long view

I’d rather pay MORE for Electricity than to have a Nuclear power plant anywhere near me.
All things to trick the public. Feb 27th is there meeting to vote to raise there price to pay for the nuclear power plant. Its all just to ease the pain. It will pass!!
Thought Gulf Power is seeking increase to pay for the land and NEW NUCLEAR plant coming soon. Just buttering us up…
Its all a show for the PSC and a big rate increase later. Good old gulf power, they use all the tricks.
every little bit helps
I am confused!! You read several articles and some say Gulf Power is seeking an increase to help off set rising fuel cost, and the next you read they are passing the savings on to the customer.
Who is on first, no who is on second??? I know I am slow!!
thank you gulf power
