MADISON, Wis. (AP) — State regulators have approved We Energies’ plan to increase hundreds of thousands of electric customers’ fixed monthly charges by nearly $7. We Energies had asked the state Public Service Commission for permission to raise its fixed monthly rates for residential and small business customers from $9.13 to $16. The utility contends the increase will ensure customers who use less energy and therefore pay less contribute their fair share toward maintaining infrastructure.
