This is Fuel Cost Charge which varies depending on the amount of thermal generation( Elec generation using diesel) done in a particular month. Hydro generation is not sufficient and now worsened by the drought, thus the reason for the thermo alternative. Considering the current price of diesel and high inflation which is another cost factor in our electricity bills, we will pay dearly for these two.
Guys, let's give KPLC a break, if they announce power rationing, we complain, when they source for an alternative though expensive, we complain.
