Utility RELIEF (Reducing Energy Load Inflation for Everyday Families) Act

Summary

The Utility RELIEF Act transfers the electric universal service program to the Office of Home Energy Programs and creates a loan program for nonprofit energy projects. It also requires investor‑owned utilities and cooperatives to file new rate schedules for large‑load customers, limits cost‑recovery methods that could raise bills, and updates the permitting and interconnection process for residential solar. The changes aim to lower costs for families and push greater energy efficiency and renewable adoption.
