Affordability

The provisions in SB23-291 required numerous changes to the PUC's rules. These rule changes (which included stakeholder engagement and public comment hearings) were completed in the spring of 2025. 

The mission of the Colorado Public Utilities Commission is to serve the public interest by effectively regulating utilities and facilities so that the people of Colorado receive safe, reliable, and reasonably-priced services consistent with the economic, environmental, and social values of our state. Affordability is a critical part of the Commission’s oversight as it regulates Colorado gas and electric utilities.
