- Here are the strong elements of House and Senate energy legislation that should be included in the final bill
The House and Senate energy bills in Massachusetts aim to improve energy affordability and address climate change through measures like preserving the Mass Save budget and reforming natural gas infrastructure programs. The Senate version retains funding for Mass Save, a program shown to deliver economic and environmental benefits, while the House proposes cuts. Key differences include GSEP reform in the Senate, which could save $1.46 billion by avoiding over-investment in natural gas, and the House's push to reverse nuclear power restrictions.
