excerpt:
Beginning in 2000, these rate caps began expiring in some utility territories in the commonwealth. By 2011, all utilities will be able to pass along the full wholesale market price to consumers. Once that happens - and because the price of energy sources like coal, natural gas and oil have increased substantially in the last 12 years- consumers can expect double-digit increases in the rates they pay.
The consumer advocate estimated the following approximate percentage increases in overall rates of residential customers over today's rates: PPL-37% Met ED-54% PECO-8% Penelec-50% Allegheny(West Penn)-63%
