NIPSCO files economic development rates with PSC
HAMMOND — In an effort to help create jobs, stimulate economic development and increase industrial production in its service area, Northern Indiana Public Service Company filed experimental electric rates with the Public Service Commission of Indiana Friday, March 1, that will provide reduced electric energy costs to new or existing industrial customers who require new or additional demand of 300 kilowatts or more from the utility’s system. Edmund A. Schroer, NIPSCO chairman and chief executive officer, said “These new rates will not only assist in creating new jobs, but will also be beneficial to the overall economic health and stability of northern Indiana. “Coupled with our already low natural gas rates, these new electric rates could help make our service area even more attractive to companies seeking to locate here or to expand existing facilities.” The utility leader said that if the rates are approved as proposed, discounts up to 35 percent could be realized initially on new or additional requirements by

eligible customers, with reduced discounts in succeeding years. The rates would be in effect from the date of approval to December 31,1990. Schroer said rates to other customers would not be increased as a result of the new industrial rates. “Although we cannot predict to what extent our customers, new or existing, will utilize the new rates, revenue from the new business will more than cover the incremental cost of providing the service, “We are aware that utility rates, of themselves, are not major factors in industrial relocation or expansion,” Schroer said. “However, these new rates provide an additional advantage or selling point in our ongoing effort to attract new industry and encourage expansion in the communities and rural areas we serve.” Use baking soda Does your cut glass or ornamental glass need cleaning?
