HARTFORD, CT (WFSB) - State regulators approved a rate increase for United Illuminating customers.

The Public Utilities Regulatory Authority on Tuesday issued a final decision on an annual revenue requirement for UI for the Nov. 1, 2025 - Oct. 31, 2026 rate year.

The ruling approved a $450,789,348 revenue requirement for the rate year, which was 8 percent less than UI’s proposal.

PURA said UI originally asked for a total revenue requirement of $490,283,797.

The approved revenue requirement will result in an monthly bill impact of about $9.99 to distribution rates for the average residential customer who uses 750 kilowatt hours of electricity.
