Wholesale Power Cost Adjustment

Members sometimes ask, “What is the WholesalePower/Fuel Cost Adj. on my bill?” The Wholesale Power Cost Adjustment (WPCA)  reflects increases or decreases in the cost of electricity Carteret-Craven Electric Cooperative purchases from its wholesale power supplier for distribution to its members.
