Delaware Lawmaker Calls for Lower Electric Bills for Residents
State Representative Bryan Shupe is urging his colleagues to work together to reduce the electric bills of Delaware residents. According to Rep. Shupe, federal and state mandates have driven electric companies to make significant investments in renewable energy, resulting in higher costs for consumers. He believes that customers are being hit twice – once with charges for renewable energy on their bills, and again with distribution charges due to the infrastructure demands of complying with mandates.
To address this issue, Rep. Shupe is proposing an increase in energy competition in Delaware through incentives that would help lower costs for consumers. He suggests incentivizing companies to diversify and bring renewable energy to the state, ultimately leading to lower prices for customers. Rep. Shupe emphasizes the need for a different mindset when it comes to energy policy and believes that working within the market is the best approach.
Looking ahead, Rep. Shupe hopes to collaborate with his Republican colleagues to develop legislation that would offer incentives to help reduce electric bills statewide. He is committed to finding solutions that will benefit Delawareans and alleviate the financial burden imposed by current energy policies.Residents of Delaware could soon see relief from high electric bills if Rep. Shupe’s proposals are implemented successfully.
