Arizona Public Service, the state’s largest public electricity provider, is asking the Arizona Corporation Commission for its third rate increase in four years. This one would raise rates 14%, adding up to about $240 more per year for customers, and many of them are not happy about it. No rate hikes! No rate hikes! No rate hikes! No rate hikes! No rate hikes! That is what it sounded like at a press conference outside of the Arizona Corporation Commission in May.
