AARP Maine and public advocate oppose CMP's proposed delivery rate increases

MAINE PUBLIC • December 15, 2022

AARP Maine and state Public Advocate William Harwood are speaking out against Central Maine Power's proposed 30% increase in delivery rates. During a virtual town hall Thursday, Harwood said CMP is seeking to increase its delivery revenue by more than $100 million. That's on top of the nearly 50% increase in supply rates that will go into effect in January. And he says a recent report found that Maine is falling behind on assistance for low-income ratepayers.
