SAL Staff

The City's Electric company has shocked its customers with electric bills that soared as much as 10% for last month, following the shutdown of the Spruce power plant, following a fire at the coal powered facility in June.

Mike Kotara, spokesman for CPS, told reporters that the utility is having to buy electricity from the Texas grid.

He also placed some blame on customers for over use during the hot summer that simmers in SA.

The generating station could be back on line by mid July.
