In June, a 5-mill credit in the Wholesale Power Adjustment (WPA) was applied, followed by a 9-mill credit in the WPA for the month of July and a 7-mill credit in August. “As a co-op, we’re focused on putting our members’ interests first,” says Cobb EMC President and CEO, Chip Nelson. “Cobb EMC works hard to keep our rates among the lowest in the state, and we’re proud to pass the savings along to our members through lower bills.”
