Updated rates, effective August 1, 2026, will recover costs for infrastructure and investments completed over the last five years to support reliability and improve service, lower generation fuel costs, and meet rising energy demand.

The Missouri Public Service Commission (MPSC) issued an order allowing Liberty to implement new electric rates effective August 3, 2026, and phased in over three years. It will allow Liberty to begin to recover costs of investments made to improve reliability and service for Missouri homes and businesses.

On May 15, 2026, Liberty filed a request with the Arkansas Public Service Commission to adjust electric base rates. Since March 2023, Liberty has invested approximately $48 million to strengthen the electric system and energy grid serving Arkansas homes and businesses.
