AES Ohio settled for a much smaller increase than it first asked for, about 2.43 dollars a month in year one instead of the original double digit request, but the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio still has to vote on it.

AES Ohio, which serves the Dayton area, asked PUCO for a distribution rate increase of roughly 14 percent. PUCO approved a settlement on November 5, 2025 that trimmed the increase, working out to about a 9 percent rise on a typical residential bill using 1000 kWh a month. AES Ohio has since filed a separate case asking for a new three year rate plan covering 2027 through 2029, which was still pending as of mid 2026.
