    The Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) has announced that there will be a hearing on September 4 at 10 a.m. to address a 4.7% rate increase proposed by United Illuminating (UI).

    Eversource recently implemented similar rate increases, causing outrage from their customers. Those rate increases are also subject to an upcoming hearing on August 24, though they have been temporarily suspended.

    The hearing will be conducted via Zoom and anyone wishing to follow or participate must first register online here. After registering, a confirmation will be provided with a direct link to the online proceedings. Public comment will be accepted at the end of the hearing; however written testimony can be emailed anytime to the Authority at pura.information@ct.gov prior to the conclusion of the hearing.

    You can view the official notice below.
