Only Hawaii has higher electric rates than Connecticut, a happenstance blamed on the state’s high cost of living, the lack of coal-fired power plants and a fee that a former governor and state lawmakers imposed on electric utilities to pay off borrowing that helped balance the state budget.
The average homeowner’s electric bill in CT is about $143 a month, compared to the national average of about $104 a month, according to the latest data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
