Connecticut Electricity Rate Increases: Escaping Eversource & UI
Connecticut residents suffer under some of the highest electricity rates in the country. Because New England relies heavily on constrained natural gas pipelines to generate electricity, utility rates are subject to massive, unpredictable spikes, particularly during the winter when heating demand surges.
The Danger of Delivery Charges
Both Eversource and United Illuminating (UI) frequently petition the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) for multi-year rate increases. Even if you drastically reduce your energy consumption, the fixed "delivery" and "public benefits" charges on your bill continue to climb. You are paying more just to stay connected to the grid.
Locking In Your Power Costs
By installing a Tier-1 solar system with SunBeam Innovations, you replace a volatile, perpetually increasing utility bill with a fixed zero-down solar financing payment. You lock in your cost of electricity for the next 25 years, completely insulating your household budget from the inflation of the New England energy sector.
