Mississippi Power Co. customers should find some relief on the bottom line of their most recent electric
bill. Customers will receive a refund of varying amounts.

The Hattiesburg American reports the rebate is part of an order from the Public Service Commission where interest from deposits is credited back to customers' bills.

Mississippi Power officials say the last time customers saw this credit was in 2009 and the next time will be in 2015.

Mississippi Power customers saw a reduction of $2.20 per 1,000-kilowatt in February bills due to lower fuel costs.

Average usage for a customer is considered 1,000 kilowatts.
