"Alabama's future is bright. You can see it in the jobs we are landing, the workers we are training, and the confidence employers are showing in every corner of the state. Most people understand what it takes to keep that momentum going: a climate that is ripe for investment, a friendly regulatory environment, and reliable, affordable energy for families and businesses."
"That is why the recent action taken by the Public Service Commission matters. Earlier this week, commissioners approved a two-year moratorium plan that keeps power rates at today's levels through 2027. At a time when prices for everybody goods seem higher than normal, two years of insurance and protection from rate increases is good news for Alabama households and job creators."
Alabama's economy is growing with new jobs, workforce training, and rising employer confidence across the state. Sustaining momentum requires an investment-friendly climate, streamlined regulations, and reliable, affordable energy for families and businesses. The Public Service Commission approved a two-year moratorium that holds power rates at current levels through 2027, providing short-term protection from rate increases. Energy Alabama is characterized as a liberal, environmentalist-funded activist group that opposes the moratorium and labels it political. Energy Alabama promotes zero-carbon goals, including 100 percent clean energy for Huntsville by 2025 and statewide by 2035. Those timelines are portrayed as unrealistic and likely to threaten grid reliability and practical economic needs.
