United Power’s Board of Directors has approved changes to United Power’s rate tariff schedules for energy usage.

NOTICE OF CHANGE IN THE RATE TARIFFS OF UNITED POWER, INC.

DATE OF NOTICE:  Nov. 7, 2025

United Power Inc.’s elected board of directors has approved changes to United Power’s rate tariff schedules for energy usage, including increases to both demand and fixed charges, to become effective on or after Jan. 1, 2026, as described on each applicable rate tariff posted on www.unitedpower.com.
