NEW 2023 ELECTRIC RATES & HOW THEY WORK

Residential Electric Rates contain two major components. 

  • Fixed Base Rates — these fees recover a portion of our fixed costs including our local distribution system lines, transformers and meters, MMLD personnel, pension obligations, our customer billing system, IT systems and support, and third party vendor expenses for engineering, system testing, regulatory filings and vegetation management
  • Variable KWH-based Electric Energy Rates — these fees directly recover our Wholesale Energy Costs that vary in volume and price month to month, from multiple power suppliers

Marblehead Municipal Light Department's 2023 New Rates increase our Base Rates and reduce our KWH-based Electric Energy Rates. The impact on the average Residential Customer's electric bill is minimal. See the examples on page 12 of MMLD's December 15, 2022 Public Information Meeting Presentation PDF.
