Utility Costs
Voted to let Georgia Power charge data centers for the cost of new infrastructure. Customer bills will still depend on contracts and PSC approval, and there’s no guarantee of lower rates for regular customers.
Approved a 3.5% monthly rate increase for customers in 2025 to help Georgia Power recover $306 million spent on utility projects. Most households saw an average monthly increase of $5.48.
Approved six rate hikes for Georgia Power over the past two years, raising customer costs by $43 per month.
