The More They Build, The More They Make: How Utilities Plan for Profit
Utility companies make money when they build energy infrastructure. The cost of that infrastructure is passed on to customers through rate hikes – like the 13% rate increase Xcel is proposing right now. How can we tell if what utilities propose are the things that best serve our pocketbooks and communities?
Join us for a webinar to learn more about the way utilities are incentivized to build infrastructure and how that affects our rates. We will also be joined by Brian Edstrom, Senior Regulatory Advocate for the Citizens Utility Board, to discuss the current Xcel Rate Case that is open for public comment through the end of the year.
