We are sick of the energy monopolies in mass. They don’t care about us, they just want our money. They want to do whatever they can to hold on to their power. I mean for fuck sakes EVERSOURCE IS ON THE COMMITTEE THAT AWARDS THE CONTRACTS TO ENERGY COMPANIES!

“One of bills National Grid opposed will make solar more accessible to lower income residents.”

“ National Grid – a UK-based utility that sells electricity and gas to 20 million customers in New York and New England – also lobbied this year against a Massachusetts bill that seeks to exempt larger solar energy producers from the net metering cap.”

“ National Grid lobbied this year in opposition to another bill by Representative Haddad enhancing the offshore wind industry by increasing the megawatts of wind energy procured by Massachusetts and reforming the state’s offshore wind procurement process by removing utilities from the selection committee that awards power supply bids.”
