Maryland "is facing an energy crisis," utility Pepco says

"Maryland is facing an energy crisis," electric utility Pepco warned in a message to customers Thursday. "When demand for electricity is high and supply is limited, it puts pressure on the system and can increase costs," the message said, advising that customers "may see changes in your energy bill" as the region enters the winter months. The utility again has attempted to explain that many of the surging costs are not its responsibility, such as the taxes and fees imposed by Montgomery County and Maryland state governments. It specifically mentioned the EmPOWER Maryland fee that the Maryland legislature recently hiked again. Politicians hope that you will think Pepco is charging you these fees, which is part of the impetus for the utility to inform customers to the contrary.

Westfield malls implement restrictions on teen autonomy

For many WCHS students, the Westfield Montgomery Mall has served as a place to shop, eat and spend time with friends. However, on Sept. 28, the Westfield Corporation implemented a new policy limiting teens after 3 PM at Westfield Montgomery and Westfield Wheaton. While the policy aims to increase the safety for shoppers, it has also raised questions about teen independence and its potential impacts on mall businesses. The official mall policy states that minors are barred from entering the mall after 3 PM unless they are with an adult. Supervising adults may also be asked to provide a valid form of identification, and can only accompany 4 minors at a time.

Exelon seeks customer relief through FERC Complaint

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Exelon Corporation has filed a complaint with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in an effort to change the way the cost of energy is determined for its customers, which include Delmarva Power. This amounts to a challenge to what is being considered by the company as an outdated method used to determine energy costs. Electricity for Cecil County comes from the PJM Grid. Currently the cost per kilowatt hour is decided by forecasting what the cost will be in three years. What Maryland can do now, according to the Exelon complaint, is change the contract to current trends, not future. Exelon contends this would bring meaningful savings to customers. PJM is a regional power supplier for Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland. In Maryland there are 275 operational generation plants, which includes residential solar. Another 265 are in the planning stage along with nine expansions. “Customers are facing a real affordability challenge, and we are stepping up through The Exelon Promise to advocate practical solutions to keep their bills as low as possible,” said Colette Honorable, Exelon executive vice president, chief legal officer, compliance and corporate secretary. “PJM’s recognition that its markets need to evolve is an important
