PG&E is ringing in the new year with an increase in monthly gas and electricity bills that will rise at a faster pace than the local inflation rate.
“That still is less than the national average combined gas and electricity bill,” a PG&E spokesman said. The national average for gas and electricity bills is $194.33 a month, which is 32 percent higher than the new average residential bill for PG&E.
It’s possible that the higher monthly power bills will pinch the budgets of consumers in the utility giant’s territory.
