Status: The State has no unbundled service programs for residential customers. |
Overview: No retail unbundling program for residential customers is being considered at this time by either the Missouri Public Service Commission or the State legislature. It has been discussed in the legislature, but nothing is currently in progress. Industrial and commercial customers have been able to receive unbundled service since 1986. The utilities still provide meter reading, billing, maintenance, and other ancillary services. |
