Maryland families are already struggling with rising energy costs. For many households, utility bills are becoming nearly impossible to manage month after month.
‍
At the same time, Maryland relies heavily on electricity from outside the state. As demand grows and older power sources retire, the pressure on the system increases, and those costs are passed directly to ratepayers.
‍
When the grid becomes congested or strained, electricity becomes more expensive. The Maryland Piedmont Reliability Project can help alleviate this pressure and provide relief for ratepayers.
‍
We are asking the Public Service Commission to stop delaying and set a clear timeline to make a decision  on the Maryland Piedmont Reliability Project.
