With just days left in Maryland’s legislative session, lawmakers are making quiet, last minute decisions that could raise your energy bill—without your input!
At risk of being cut is the EmPOWER program, which saves residents and businesses money through free energy audits, rebates, weatherization materials, and energy efficient appliances.
Since 2015, this program has saved Marylanders $272 million on their bills.
At the same time, policymakers are also considering changes that would allow the Maryland PSC to shift the full upfront cost of natural gas connections onto customers and builders. That short sighted move would drive up housing costs further for you and your family.
