Residential energy rebates.. not yet.

 

Maryland households will have to wait just a little bit longer for a promised rebate on their energy bills amid the summer heat.

While legislative leaders had said they expected the first payments in July, the Maryland Public Service Commission said Friday that the first round of rebates to all residential energy customers is expected in August or September. A second round is anticipated in either January or February.

Total payments are expected to average about $80 per household for the year.
