POWER COST ADJUSTMENT
Providing Electricity at Cost
The Power Cost Adjustment (PCA) is an adjustment made to your electric bill each month to reflect fluctuations in the true cost of power purchased from Tipmont’s provider, Wabash Valley Power. The fluctuation is largely caused by changes in the cost of fuel for generation. Tipmont receives no benefit or profit from the PCA.
The PCA appears as a separate line item on each member’s bill each month. This adjustment is applicable to, and becomes a part of, all Tipmont retail rate schedules and is applicable to all sales.
The PCA is calculated each month and allows Tipmont’s monthly rates to stay consistent rather than changing with each fluctuation in the generation cost of energy.
