Ameren Missouri Request To Adjust Energy Efficiency

Investment Charge Rider Approved

 

 

JEFFERSON CITY—The Missouri Public Service Commission has approved a request filed by Union Electric Company d/b/a Ameren Missouri to adjust the Energy Efficiency Investment Charge (EEIC) Rider that appears on the monthly bills of electric customers of Ameren Missouri.  In its application, the electric company sought to adjust customer rates for changes in Ameren Missouri’s energy efficiency costs.

The current monthly charge for a typical residential customer is $3.70 a month.  It will increase to $6.00 a month effective January 27, 2015.

The Energy Efficiency Investment Charge (EEIC) is a charge which encourages utility companies to implement demand-side and energy efficiency programs and was part of the Missouri Energy Efficiency Investment Act (MEEIA).  The mechanism is reflected as a separate line item on customer bills.

Ameren Missouri serves approximately 1.2 million electric customers in Missouri.
