Georgia Power, the largest electric subsidiary of Southern Company, will lower overall rates for customers following approval from the Georgia Public Service Commission.

The plan will lower costs by $50 a year, or $4.04 a month, for the typical residential customer using an average of 1,000 kilowatt-hours a month, Georgia Power said Thursday.

Total annual savings for all Georgia Power customers will be about $285 million.

Georgia Power has committed to providing annual savings of $102 a year for the typical residential customer beginning in 2029.
