GOVERNOR LAUNCHES ENERGY PROGRAM TO LOWER ELECTRICITY COSTS

Governor Wes Moore is launching the “Megawatts for Maryland” program to increase in-state energy generation over the next two years and help lower costs for ratepayers. The 200-million-dollar clean energy auction aims to tackle rising electricity demand with cleaner, cheaper, in-state energy generation. The program was established through the landmark Utility RELIEF Act, which was signed into law earlier this year.
