💸Pennsylvanians want relief from our high energy bills.
❗That’s why this week PennFuture submitted comments to regional grid operator PJM, urging them to fix their broken system before sticking Pennsylvanians with the cost.
Lucky for them, we put together a compilation of clear, actionable solutions that will lower Pennsylvanians’ household energy bills and bring down costs for local businesses.

We read the PJM power grid operator's capacity auction numbers so you don't have to.
Bottom line: PA households are subsidizing data centers' transmission costs and we will continue to pay more for our own electricity for the foreseeable future.
