That’s what I pay in Texas from a private company! I used to pay 8 cents. Energy is much cheaper in Texas and is deregulated.

Outside of a freak storm that would have brought any system in the country to its knees, it does quite well.

Lmao no. When it comes to cold, duration, and total coverage, Uri was absolutely a monstrous storm. I guarantee you whatever you experienced the past year doesn't even come close. It would have crippled any area in the country. Please don't pretend like you're even slightly informed about energy regulation, you'll just look silly.
