At recent public hearings, many We Energies customers opposed the proposed rate hike for 2025-26, which could raise utility bills $143 annually. Concerns centered on affordability, with retirees and low-income residents struggling to keep up. CUB urged the Public Service Commission to cut the utility’s profits and protect consumers from footing the bill for executive bonuses and unneeded infrastructure. Affected customers are encouraged to submit comments to the PSC to voice their concerns.
