AARP is urging Connecticut residents to challenge a proposal by United Illuminating (UI) that would call for a 30%+ increase of electric distribution charges to the ratepayer over the next three years. The proposal also allows UI to increase its profits with a higher return on equity and a new “earnings sharing mechanism” giving the company’s shareholders an opportunity to earn even higher returns via an automatic revenue retention plan.
