Regarding Ameren's request
Thursday, February 5, 2015
On Monday, January 26th I had the opportunity to testify before the Public Service Commission (PSC) regarding Ameren's request for a rate increase in Missouri. A portion of this request would raise electricity rates at Noranda Aluminum, the bootheel's largest private employer, by 14 percent. In addition to being a large employer, Noranda is the state's largest electric consumer and has made clear a rate increase of this size threatens the aluminum maker's sustainability in Missouri.
