Group urges San Antonio to hire consumer advocate ahead of CPS Energy rate hike
With CPS Energy poised to seek another rate increase, consumer group Public Citizen is urging San Antonio City Council to hire a ratepayer advocate to protect residents from potential gouging. Officials with the city-owned utility are working to finalize a proposed rate increase to cover pricy but needed upgrades to plants and equipment. Those expenses could run as high as $120 million annually, prompting the utility to seek a 5.5% increase on customer bills by early 2024, the Express-News reports.
