EV experts say that nobody should be paying higher power bills when there are private businesses that want to invest and pay for the EV charging stations themselves.

Senate Bill 1501 aims to put a guard rail on the marketplace. It gives businesses the reassurance that they are not going to be undercut by major power companies.

Power companies are raising residents and business' power bills on a monthly basis in order to pay for their own charging stations.This discourages private investments in the EV charging space. According to Charge Ahead Partners, there are many local retailers that want to get into EV charging but the power company at any point can jump in and change costs.
