Vermont Public Service Board

The Vermont Public Service Board (PSB) is a state authority that oversees utilities like electricity, gas, and telecommunications. Its role is to ensure reliable service, fair rates, and that utilities follow state laws. The PSB reviews and approves applications for utility projects, investigates complaints, and enforces regulations to protect consumers and promote responsible resource management. It balances the needs of consumers, utilities, and the environment, making decisions that support Vermont’s sustainable and equitable energy future. Essentially, the PSB acts as a neutral regulator to maintain fair, safe, and efficient utility services in the state.
