I would like to propose that the progressnow action network be used to fight Xcel energy's proposal to increase the price of Windsource and always keep the price high.

Can we create a campaign to end this madness?

I would like to direct your attention to The Denver Post article at: Link

Under the proposal, Windsource costs would rise from $3.79 to $4.29 per 100 kilowatt- hours. The typical Colorado home uses 625 kilowatt-hours per month.

Xcel said it is asking for the rate increase to keep Windsource prices higher than conventional power.

"This is a premium price program, and customers that elect to join the Windsource program have decided to pay more to build up wind power in the state," Xcel spokeswoman Ethnie Groves said.

Steady wind means pricier power

Thanks for your consideration!

Wasn't this part of the recent Expose Xcel effort? Is this something that will come up in the proceedings around the rate increase request?
