Could be worse. If you lived in California you'd pay triple the "above-market electricity rates" you currently pay.

Based on numbers here (https://www.electricchoice.com/electricity-prices-by-state/) it would be double, not triple.

  • The Non-PG&E areas pull the average down I guess. PG&E is more like 45-50 cents/kwh

    • Damn. I thought Germany had the most expensive electricity at 0.38€/kWh or so and the US had maybe $0.06-$0.15 depending on region.

    • I just checked my bill. Here in California, in the SF Bay Area, we're paying 82.7 cents per kWh. That's 62.6 cents for delivery and 20.1 cents for generation.

      Those websites that report lower rates are incredibly wrong and misleading.
