Public Comments are being accepted on Atmos Energy rate increase request
Atmos Energy has filed an application with the Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC) requesting to increase rates by $19.1 million to recover costs already incurred to support continued safe and reliable service for its Kansas customers. If approved, the average monthly bill for residential customers will increase by 11.2%. For a customer with average usage, that equates to an increase of approximately $9.12 per month.
The KCC held a public hearing on December 2, to give Atmos customers an opportunity to learn about the proposal, ask questions, and make public comments before the Commission. In addition, the Commission is accepting written comments through 5 p.m. on Tuesday, January 20, 2026. Click on the link below to submit a comment.
