Monthly Variations in Generation and Transmission Charges

The Generation and Transmission line item charge on electric bills is calculated by multiplying the number of kilowatt hours used by the current per kilowatt hour charge from Buckeye Power to generate and transmit power to South Central Power. The per kilowatt hour charge changes monthly based on factors such as the cost of fuel and environmental controls as well as demand on the system.

The graph below reflects the per kWh generation and transmission charge in each of the last several months.
