Your Energy Bill Just Shot Up. PJM Is To Blame.
PJM Interconnection, the largest grid operator in the U.S., has badly mismanaged our grid and it’s sending energy bills skyrocketing.
You Pay More Thanks to PJM
If you live in Maryland, New Jersey, or Pennsylvania, your electrical grid is operated by PJM Interconnection, the largest grid operator in the U.S., and they are responsible for the latest spike in your energy bills.
PJM, a private corporation, and its utility-industry allies are to blame. Their broken process has led to the longest wait time in the nation for projects that would build a more robust, affordable, and reliable electric grid.
That means less power to go around and higher prices for all of us.
Clean Energy Is Reliable, Cheap, and Faster To Build
PJM is supposed to ensure affordable, reliable electricity for 65 million people. But it’s controlled by monopoly utility companies and fossil fuel owners that make more money when they can charge you for gas and coal. So, PJM has spent years delaying clean energy projects while raising your rates—and doubling executive salaries.
A recent independent study found fixing this issue would save the average household over $500/year on their power bills.
Speak up now and tell your state legislators to hold PJM accountable and lower bills.
There are thousands of clean energy projects stuck waiting that could be lowering energy costs today. This must change—and you can help change it. Speak up now and tell your state legislators to help fix PJM.
