Why the nation’s largest power market wants to stop paying for energy efficiency

  • Summary

  • The nation’s largest power market, PJM Interconnection, is proposing to stop payments for energy efficiency initiatives, which are meant to encourage households and businesses to use less power. POLITICO’s Catherine Morehouse breaks down PJM’s proposal, how FERC is involved, and why clean energy advocates aren’t thrilled. Plus, the Treasury Department is proposing a rule implementing a potentially lucrative tax credit that could cover nearly a third of the cost for businesses and individuals installing electric vehicle charging stations in low-income and rural areas.
