Tell legislators: More clean energy = lower electric bills

Electric bills are rising fast across the Mid-Atlantic—and PJM Interconnection is to blame. This quiet grid operator controls how electricity flows (and how much it costs) for 65 million people. And right now, they're doing it badly.

Here's what you need to know:

• Clean energy is cheaper—by a lot. Independent economists say solar and wind now cost 50 percent less than gas—even with start-up costs.

• You could be saving $500+ a year. A recent report found that if PJM stopped delaying clean energy connections, families would save hundreds.

• PJM is run by monopoly utility companies. They make more money from gas and coal, so they block cheaper alternatives.

• They've only connected one clean energy project since 2020. That’s not progress. It's sabotage.

• Other states are doing better. Grid operators in places like Maine and Minnesota get 30 percent or more of their power from clean energy—and prices are more stable.

The good news? State legislators can help.

Speak up now and tell your state legislators to help fix PJM.
