FLORENCE, Ala. — The Tennessee Valley Authority Board will meet on Thursday in a session that is expected to include discussion of a proposed 5.25 percent rate increase.

Thursday's Board meeting will also be streamed live on TVA.com.
The Tennessee Valley Authority provides power to about 10 million people across seven southeastern states. The service area includes northern Alabama.
