[Durham INC] Durham Rate Hike Hearing

[bonita green]

Duke Energy hopes to increase energy rates by 17.9% over the next three
years such that by 2026, the average annual residential electric bill would
be about $240 higher than it is today. To share your story and prevent this
energy rate increase, you can give testimony to the NC Utilities Commission
at a public hearing in Durham on August, 14. Sunrise Durham, People Power
NC, and other community organizations are organizing a teach-in workshop on
Thursday, August 10 from 6-8 PM at the Center for Responsible Lending to
help you learn about the increases and prepare for the hearing on the 14th.

Español:

Duke Energy anticipa poder aumentar las tarifas de energía en un 17.9%
durante los próximos tres años; para 2026, la factura eléctrica residencial
promedio anual sería aproximadamente $240 más alta de lo que es hoy. Es
importante que la Comisión de Servicios Públicos de Carolina del Norte
escuche su experiencia personal y los desafíos relacionados con el aumento
de las facturas de energía a la audiencia pública. Por eso, Sunrise Durham,
People Power NC y otras organizaciones comunitarias están organizando un
taller de enseñanza el jueves 10 de agosto, para aprender sobre los
aumentos y prepararse para la audiencia del 14 de agosto.
