As I'm sure most of you know, California is experiencing an unprecedented
power shortage. The industry was deregulated a few years ago and as part of
the agreement distributors such as PG&E and Southern Edison were to hold
electricity prices steady for a period of time that hasn't yet elapsed (I
think it was three years).
Power generating companies, which are separate from the distributors mentioned
above, say they can sell power to other states for more than what the
California distributors can afford to pay.
I'm just wondering what everyone else out there pays for gas and electric
power. PG&E charges me 11.5 cents/Kwh baseline (345 Kwh) and 13.3 cents for
over baseline for power and $1.05/therm baseline (64 therms) $1.25 for over
baseline for gas (the baseline price for gas is up 64% from last January's
bill).
Just wondering.
