Healey announced Monday that in addition to the DPU's action on gas bills, residential electricity customers will be receiving a $50 credit in April. "I know that's not a ton of money compared to what people have been paying, but it's something. It is something. Every dollar counts," Healey said.

The Healey administration hopes to save residents billions of dollars in energy costs over the next five years by pulling a host of executive-branch levers, including redirection of some clean energy development funding to shave $50 off electricity bills in April.
