Facts are important when it comes to NorthWestern Energy’s Montana property taxes

Date: Sep 6, 2024
Type: News
Opinions about what’s fair, what’s affordable and what’s the wisest way to spend taxes are abundant. Opinions about whether some get a deal while others shoulder too much are plentiful. Some statements being made this campaign season about NorthWestern Energy and Montana property taxes are flat out wrong and misleading. It’s important to know the facts. In Montana, NorthWestern Energy is the largest single property taxpayer in the state by a significant amount. Residential property taxpayers contribute the largest amount, as a group, of property taxes in Montana. Property taxes are a flow through expense on NorthWestern Energy customer bills – which means if they go up, customer bills go up and if they go down, customer bills go down.
