SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Renewable energy advocates are hailing the rejection of Rocky Mountain Power's request for a new fee for residential rooftop solar panels in Utah.

But the commission ruled the utility failed to prove the fee was justified. Rocky Mountain officials say they look forward to providing more information so the panel can revisit the issue. The commission also approved a 1.9 percent rate increase for all residential customers that will boost monthly bills by an average of $1.76.Read more on NewsOK.com
