Will your business be affected by the Duke Energy rate increase in 2023? Similar to AEP and all the deregulated Ohio electricity utilities, they held their auctions in tranches between September 2022 and February 2023, respectively.


Effective June 2023, these Duke Energy default rates are scheduled to increase to a rate of $0.08938/kWh.


Duke Energy held their auctions twice with their first tranche hedged September 20, 2022 with 20% of the load at a rate of $115.75/MWh ($0.11575/kWh) and the second tranche hedged last month on February 21, 2023 with the remaining 80% at a rate of $82.79/MWh ($0.08279/kWh).
