Public Service Company of Oklahoma (PSO) announced that customers will see reduced electric bills beginning this month due to a decline in natural gas prices. The company said the average residential customer using 1,100 kilowatt-hours of electricity will see their monthly bill drop by approximately $12 – a 7% decrease.

According to PSO, the adjustment reflects the pass-through expense of natural gas used to generate electricity. When the cost of fuel decreases, those savings are directly returned to customers.

“We know how important affordability is to our customers, and we’re pleased to pass these savings along,” said PSO President and Chief Operating Officer Leigh Anne Strahler. “Our team is focused every day on delivering dependable service while keeping costs as low as possible.”

The company emphasized that it remains committed to providing safe, reliable, and affordable energy across its service areas. “Through thoughtful planning, strategic investments, and a balanced energy mix, PSO works to shield customers from market volatility and deliver consistent value,” the company stated.

In addition to the recent reduction in fuel costs, PSO reminded customers of several programs available to help manage energy expenses, including free weatherization services, rebates, energy efficiency incentives, and flexible payment options.

A unit of American Electric Power (Nasdaq: AEP), PSO serves nearly 575,000 customer accounts across eastern and southwestern Oklahoma. The Tulsa-based company operates approximately 4,400 megawatts of diverse generating capacity, primarily from wind and natural gas, and maintains more than 20,000 miles of distribution lines and 3,800 miles of transmission lines.

PSO was recognized by the Edison Electric Institute with an Emergency Response Award earlier this year for its exceptional service and recovery efforts.
