Webinar: “Why the Georgia PSC Matters To Your Electric Bills” with Commissioner Peter Hubbard
September 14 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Utility bills have gone up dramatically in recent years and many people are wondering why. In Georgia, the primary regulator of utility bills is the Public Service Commission (PSC). This five-person body has the final say over major decisions that Georgia Power makes, such as how much they can charge customers, whether Georgia Power is approved to build new power plants (including those built to serve data centers), and how much environmental impact those plants have. The PSC is elected by the public, and two of the five seats are up for election this November.
Join us for an informational discussion on Monday, September 14, at 1 PM ET, to learn more about what the PSC is and why it is so important for Georgians to hold the PSC accountable for decisions that impact our daily lives and wallets. We will hear from newly elected Commissioner Peter Hubbard about what the role is really like in a roundtable discussion facilitated by SACE’s Executive Director, Dr. Stephen A. Smith, and Research Director, Maggie Shober.
