<p>For non-lifeline residential customers, the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC) has announced an upcoming rise in water, electricity, and natural gas rates.</p>



<p>With this modification, water and electricity rates will both increase by 1.18% and 4.22%, respectively, starting on Friday, September 1, 2023.</p>



<p>It&#8217;s vital to note that this change will not apply to industrial clients or non-residential companies like barbershops, chop houses, tailoring and dressmaking shops, cold storage facilities, and other small to medium-sized enterprises, as well as hair salons, salons, barber shops, and chop bars.</p>



<p>The main goal of the tariff adjustment, according to a news release from PURC, is to maintain the real value of the cost of delivering utility services.</p>



<p>The Commission approved no increase or adjustment (0%) in end-user energy pricing for lifeline consumers, industrial customers, and non-residential users effective September 1, 2023, according to the press statement. But the Commission decided to raise the average and end-user power rate for non-lifeline residential consumers by 4.22% overall.</p>



<p>Lifeline subscribers won&#8217;t see a rise in water prices or any other adjustment (0%) in pricing. All other water user categories, meanwhile, will have their rates increase by 1.18%, as recommended by the Commission.</p>



<p>The announcement of a tariff adjustment is anticipated to have an effect on homes and locals who depend on these vital utilities.</p>



<p>In order to prepare for the upcoming increases in their power bills, many people will be closely tracking their consumption and creating budgets.</p>
