Here’s a household-budget update for CoServ neighbors to keep on the radar.

CoServ's 2026 electric-rate notice says its standard residential monthly customer charge will increase from $15 to $20 on December 1, 2026. That is $5 more per month, or $60 across twelve months, before considering other bill components or adjustments.

Check your rate class

The notice lists the same $15-to-$20 change for Summer Savings, Solar Savings and Reliability Plus. The Time-of-Use customer charge changes from $17 to $20. CoServ says the price per kilowatt-hour is not increasing under this announcement.

For customers with distributed generation, the notice describes a separate $5 reduction to the DG customer charge alongside the applicable customer-charge increase. Read the details for your account before estimating the net change.

Where to ask questions

CoServ lists a member meeting for November 19, 2026, at 8 a.m. at its headquarters. Check the official notice for updates and attendance information.

Read the bill in parts

Our practical suggestion is to locate the rate-class name on your account, then identify the fixed charge separately from usage-based charges. Compare equivalent billing periods. A change in total payment can reflect several factors, so the headline dollar increase is not a forecast of your entire bill.
