⚡Maryland and other U.S. states need to review their electricity rates to ensure they are fair for heat pumps. #HeatPump #EnergySky #ClimateSky #GreenSky #HVAC #EnergyAffordability #BuildingDecarbonization #CleanHeat #Maryland #ElectrifyEverything #UtilityRates #mdpol #EnergyPolicy #BuildingDecarb
Families are struggling with home energy bills and need solutions now.
But outdated electricity rates are overcharging customers who use efficient heat pumps--$359/yr for BGE customers. Fairer rates would save people real $$.

Pros:
It is the best stove ever made and performs precisely to spec. The rapid boil works perfectly and while the temp hold on cooked dishes is not quite as good as an immersion circulator (largely due to lower thermal mass) it is 100% more convenient. From that perspective, strong recommend
