Efficient electric equipment, powered by clean sources, is the answer to the energy affordability crunch - CommonWealth Beacon Better equipment and cheaper energy sources are critical to achieving an affordable energy future.

As @EversourceMA's profits mount & its CEO takes home a $19 million salary, MA residents can't afford to stay warm this winter. It's time for MA to push back against corporate greed and help people invest in efficient electric equipment #mapoli

“Every new gas pipe is a 40-year mortgage on your bill.” Sen. Barrett tells WCVB how wasteful gas utility spending is directly driving up gas bills across Massachusetts. #mapoli

GSEP=one of the biggest cost pressures on MA gas bills. Utility spending has TRIPLED since 2014, reaching $901M on new pipes this year. Every dollar directly raises your delivery charges. It’s time for legislators to address what’s really making energy unaffordable #mapoli

House punts on sweeping energy bill that would dial back state climate commitments - CommonWealth Beacon After intense blowback to a draft House bill to weaken the state’s 2030 clean energy target, the chamber’s budget chief says the topic is on hold until next year.

THANK YOU to everyone who called, emailed, rallied, posted, and generally let the State House know that we want progress, not rollbacks. There are many more conversations to come, but for now, THANK YOU.

Why Mass. gas bills are rising — and what we need to do about it - The Boston Globe Most of what customers now pay each month no longer goes toward fuel, but toward rebuilding and maintaining a gas network that is larger than is necessary to meet future needs.

The real reasons behind rising Mass. gas bills:

House climate bill is a big step backward   - CommonWealth Beacon At a moment when President Trump is dismantling federal climate policy, this bill would do the work for him. It would abandon our 2030 emissions targets, gut our most effective programs, and lock Massachusetts into the very fossil fuel dependence that has driven today’s affordability crisis.

Natural gas prices are low, but your monthly gas bill is up. Here's why Gas utility bills are rising even though natural gas prices are down. That's because a much larger share of your gas bill now goes to infrastructure instead of fuel.

Why are our gas bills so expensive? SPOILER ALERT: It's not just in MA--and it's not about the price of gas.

@npr.org spells it out: vist.ly/4afuh

And shout out to MA DPU and @massago.bsky.social for the work they're doing to protect all of us as ratepayers.
