PEER Report #133

A FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL SURVEY OF ELECTRIC POWER ASSOCIATIONS AND MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC UTILITIES IN MISSISSIPPI, January 31, 1983, 101 pages

This survey-based report presents financial and operational data on each of the forty-nine Mississippi-based electric power utilities which are exempt from rate regulation by the Mississippi Public Service Commission. These utilities, which provide electricity to over 500,000 in-state customers, fall into two categories: municipal electric utilities and electric power associations. The report includes size, earnings and debt structure, operation cost, and rate information on each of the utilities surveyed. Also, the report contains rate information on the state’s two investor-owned utilities: Mississippi Power Company and Mississippi Power and Light Company.
