Kat Taylor Argyle Twp.	11/24/2025	See attached	Kat Taylor - Docket 2025-00312 comments.doc
Kat Taylor Argyle Twp.	11/20/2025	Electricity is too expensive. Lawmakers nationwide can lower power bills by cutting utility profits, rewarding the companies for boosting efficiency, and unleashing solar and storage. In the last election Democratic candidates who put a spotlight on energy affordability won key races in Virginia, New Jersey, and Georgia. State and local lawmakers, including those just elected, have the authority to do something about this increasingly urgent problem. Here are 3 immediate steps they can take to save consumers money on their power bills. Cut runaway utility profit rates State regulators can lower skyrocketing electric bills practically overnight by reducing utility profit rates. Investor-owned utilities earn a guaranteed profit on every dollar they spend. State public utilities commissions set these profit rates, and right now they're way higher than they used to be. Pay utilities for performance Lawmakers can save consumers billions by adjusting incentives to pay utilities for performance rather than construction. Under current rules, utilities profit significantly more from building new infrastructure than from investing in energy efficiency or cheaper upgrades to existing poles and wires. Most analyses of high electricity prices find that utility spending on transmission and distribution infrastructure is a main or major culprit. The more utilities build, the more they profit, so they build a lot. Unblock local power and storage Local solar and batteries make electricity right where people use it, and more of each saves everyone money. Models suggest that dramatically scaling up energy resources like rooftop solar and batteries, and coordinating them with tools like smart thermostats, could cut future grid costs by half a trillion dollars. But state and local laws, and utilities' own policies around crucial processes like connecting to the grid, are mostly written to block and slow down small-scale clean energy.
