Electric customers for certain territories in the Northeast Ohio Public Energy Council (NOPEC) municipal aggregation will see new rates effective with the July 2019 meter read date

For residential customers at Cleveland Electric Illuminating, Ohio Edison, and AEP Ohio (apart from those within the City of Cleveland), NOPEC is offering the following rates effective with the July 2019 meter read date
