Electric and gas utilities have begun notifying residential customers with unpaid and/or past-due balances that if they do not take action and contact their utility to enroll in a payment plan, they are at risk of having their gas services terminated on Thursday, May 2, 2024. If your household has received a notification from your utility company, please contact them directly to set up a payment plan to keep your services on. These plans charge no interest, and all customers qualify at least once for one or more of these plans. After engaging with utility providers, customers may also contact PURA’s customer affairs unit for specific questions regarding payment arrangements.

Program Overview
In 2021, PURA established a successor residential renewable energy program that will change how solar owners are compensated for the power their systems produce and provide to the local electric grid. The new program will replace current net metering, as well as the residential solar incentive program (RSIP), starting January 1, 2022. The plan ensures the continued sustained and orderly development of the state’s solar industry while putting in place important ratepayer and consumer protections that ensure ratepayers reap the benefits of renewable energy resources.
