LG&E works to improve their services for customers

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - The Kentucky Public Service Commission has approved a plan for LG&E to expand special programs and the company says it will make your service better.

LG&E will now be allowed to continue ten existing programs for customers plus initiate three new programs for residential customers. Two of the three new programs are intended to cut the amount of electricity used by residential appliances.

One will pay customers $30 for each old refrigerator or freezer they allow LG&E to remove. The second program provides incentives for customers to replace old appliances with newer, more efficient models.

The incentives range from $50 for dishwashers or freezers to $300 for heat-pump water heaters.
