Senator Norm Needleman, Senate chair of the legislature’s Energy and Technology Committee, issued the following statement Thursday in response to a lawsuit filed by Eversource and Avangrid against Marissa Gillett, chairman of Public Utility Regulatory Authority.
“This frivolous lawsuit is driven by the same greed we’ve grown accustomed to from Eversource and Avangrid as they continue to pursue their own interests at the expense of Connecticut families,” Senator Needleman, D-Essex, said. “Despite record profits and record salaries for their executives, these corporate monopolies continue to push for more. The regulators they’re suing here are representing the interests of Connecticut ratepayers in the face of the utilities’ unending pursuit of more profits. I stand with the regulators.”
