Climate Change Legislation: What You Need to Know

Welcome to Black Hills Corp.’s dedicated Web site designed to inform and educate our audiences on proposed climate change legislation, its impact on our customers and the community and how each and every one of us can make a difference in the debate.

• If Congress passes climate change legislation in its current form, our analysis indicates it will increase the utility bills of our customers significantly. >> See customer impact page
• The climate change legislation as passed by the U.S. House would increase energy costs for customers in the Midwest significantly more than those who consume energy on the East and West Coasts, and the increased expenses would negatively impact the competitiveness of United States businesses who compete with countries that will not be mandated to limit their greenhouse gases emissions.
• If we act now, Congress has opportunities to amend the proposed climate change legislation so that the environmental concerns are addressed while mitigating costs for customers and lowering risks for the economy.

As your energy provider, we at Black Hills Corp. want our customers to understand how decisions in Washington, D.C. could impact your natural gas and electricity bills and how you can get involved in the debate. Take action and let your voice be heard as Congress considers climate change legislation.

If you contact your U.S. Senators or U.S. Representatives, they will listen.

Let your voice be heard and make a difference. Tell Congress how unfair climate change legislation would impact your family, your business and even your children’s school. Ask them to support options that protect customers.

There are solutions that will enable us to bring on new technologies, reduce emissions and keep energy costs reasonable.
