We Energies residential customers will see a double-digit increase in their electric bills, and a smaller increase in their natural gas bills.

MADISON — We Energies and Wisconsin Public Service customers have an opportunity to make their voices heard in rate cases that will set utility prices for 202

Every two years electric utilities in Wisconsin are allowed to request more money from customers. The complicated process is called a “rate case” and the Public Service Commission coordinates it. We Energies is asking for more than an 8% increase starting in 2023.

WEC Energy Group and Alliant Energy announced plans Thursday to delay the planned retirement of several coal-fired power plants in Wisconsin, citing concerns about a tight energy supply in the Midwest.

We Energies utilities are seeking approval from regulators for rate increases that would increase the typical residential electric bill by $5 to $6 per month, a 5% to 6% increase starting in January.

The new facility will be built at the existing Weston coal power plant site in Marathon County.
