Utility Commission

A Utility Commission is a government agency that regulates public utilities, such as electricity, water, and natural gas providers. Its main role is to ensure that these utilities deliver safe, reliable services at fair prices while also maintaining sufficient infrastructure. The commission approves rates that customers pay, oversees service quality, and addresses consumer complaints. By balancing the interests of consumers and utility companies, the Utility Commission helps promote efficient service delivery and protects public welfare.
