印第安纳州长布劳恩指示加快公用事业降费审批：两家公司拟返还逾1.16亿美元
印第安纳州马里恩县印第安纳波利斯市，州长 Mike Braun 10月30日指示印第安纳州公用事业监管委员会（IURC）加快审查公用事业公司提交的降费申请，以尽快降低全州家庭的能源账单。布劳恩说：“当公用事业公司提出降费方案时，我希望这些节省能尽快进入居民的口袋。”
印第安纳密歇根电力公司在2026年上半年已两次下调电价，并于8月26日宣布，拟在2027年再为客户减免约5900万美元，同时冻结居民电费三年；按该公司测算，每月用电1000千瓦时的典型居民客户每年约可节省100美元。
北印第安纳公共服务公司（NIPSCO）10月28日宣布，计划把数据中心发展带来的5750万美元新增收入直接返还给现有电力客户：居民客户在18个月内约可获得90美元账单抵扣，相当于每月约5美元，预计2027年第一季度开始发放，须经监管委员会批准。州政府表示，具体降幅和生效时间仍需监管委员会逐案审批后确定。

Indiana Governor Braun Directs Regulators to Speed Up Utility Rate Reductions: Two Utilities Plan to Return More Than $116 Million
In Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana, Governor Mike Braun on October 30 directed the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC) to expedite its review of utility filings that would lower rates, so that announced reductions reach household bills as quickly as possible. "When utilities come forward with proposals to lower rates, I want those savings getting into Hoosiers' pockets as quickly as possible," Braun said.
Indiana Michigan Power delivered two rate reductions in the first half of 2026 and announced on August 26 a proposal to deliver approximately $59 million in further customer bill reductions in 2027, while freezing residential rates for three consecutive years; the company estimates a typical residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt-hours a month would save about $100 a year.
Northern Indiana Public Service Company (NIPSCO) announced on October 28 that it plans to return $57.5 million in new revenue from data center development directly to its existing electricity customers: residential customers would receive about $90 in bill credits over 18 months, roughly $5 a month, expected to begin in the first quarter of 2027, subject to IURC approval. The state said specific reductions and effective dates remain subject to case-by-case approval by the commission.
