MDU Gets Temporary Rate Hike | Bismarck News
Description
MDU’s electricity rates are getting a 12.3% temporary bump—focused only on basic service, demand, and energy charges—not your other fees. The state’s Public Service Commission approved it fast, within 60 days, even without a full hearing, because North Dakota law requires it. MDU originally asked for a steeper 14.5% hike to fund infrastructure upgrades and rising costs, but they’ve gone nearly three years without a rate increase since 2022. Crucially, they’re clarifying this isn’t tied to any data center projects—and the big rate case won’t be heard until 2027.
