Title: The Future of Energy, The Affordable Bill 

Description: Maryland is in the midst of an energy crisis created by a rapidly increasing demand for electricity with limited capacity on existing utility systems and limited electricity supply.  The imbalance between supply and demand has resulted in higher electric bills during a time when the state is moving toward more electrification. Join these panelists in a discussion about the changes required to address this crisis while managing customer affordability and the solutions for the future with an eye on energy policy, utility investments, regulatory programs, and customer choice.
