Combined Heat and Power Even More Appealing Amid Spiking Utility Prices
ACCESSWIRE - Thu May 29, 8:53AM CDT
Whitefish, MT / May 29, 2014 / Skyrocketing utility rates put U.S. citizens in an uproar in many parts of the country, with monthly bills doubling or tripling in many cities this winter. Last month, Senator Charles Schumer called upon the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the situation to determine if utility companies are artificially inflating upstate New York electric rates. Most of the country is experiencing rising electric costs, with the Midwest and Northeast hit particularly hard. While it's fair to say that the massive spikes in costs were attributable to the bitter cold winter, don't be fooled that it was a temporary hike. Rates are still moving north, a product of an improving economy and rising commodity prices. As The Motley Fool noted in March, "Utilities will benefit from increased economic growth in the United States, as it would leave open the possibility for greater rate increases and transmission growth." Article author Bob Ciura notes that recent investor presentations by American Electric Power Co. (NYSE: AEP) and Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK) cited an improving economy as a fundamental driver of profit targets.
