Connecticut Consumer Counsel Elin Swanson Katz is alleging that changes required by legislation to Connecticut electric bills -- such as listing the generation rate applicable for the next month on the bill -- won't be implemented by July as required, the Hartford Courant reports.

As recently reported by EnergyChoiceMatters.com, PURA issued a final order to implement the legislative directive that the EDCs' bills shall now list on the first page: (1) the electric generation service rate; (2) the term and expiration date of such rate; (3) any change to such rate effective the next billing cycle; (4) the cancellation fee, if applicable, provided there is such a change; (5) notification that such rate is variable, if applicable; (6) the standard service rate; (7) the term and expiration date of the standard service rate; (8) the dollar amount that would have been billed for the electric generation services component had the customer been receiving standard service; and (9) an electronic link or Internet website address to the PURA rate board, and the toll-free telephone number and other information necessary to enable a customer to obtain standard service.

See the Hartford Courant for the story on whether these changes will be implemented on time
