      Lots of data centers going up in VA, yet their energy costs go down? That’s odd.

      I’m in one of the alleged 0-10% areas. I was just looking up my old bills last night and the per watt rate is up about 50% since 2018.

      I don’t believe anyone’s electricity bill is going *down*, given the same kw usage.

      Everyone in Ma should be so angry at the nimby POS‘ that killed the original Cape Wind Project.

      Somewhat spurious. Maybe a state had super high prices in 2010 or vice versa.

      That map is a lie.

      In Maryland, 2025 electricity prices have never been higher. Prices were so high at the start of 2025 that BGE was investigated by the state for price gouging. People who would normally have a $300-$500/mo bill were receiving $1,000+ bills in the winter last year. It was widely covered by local outlets like the Baltimore Sun so you can look it up easily.

      I have also paid an electric bill in MD every month since 2010 and prices have slowly but steadily climbed since then. 5 years ago, my average monthly bill was about $215. Prior to 2020 it was around $180. Today that bill is around $325. No, I didn’t move or change my utility equipment.

      No one can argue in good faith that we’ve had ~80% inflation since 2010, so that map is not correct, at least in my state.

      I look at California and shake my head! We have tons of solar. We have tons of wind. Yet, the three big utility companies are the largest contributors to political campaigns in the state and our rates keep going up and up and up.

      PG&e was just on the hook for creating a massive fire and causing $50 billion in losses. Instead of taking it out of PG&e’s profits, the government (public utilities commission) allowed them to raise rates to cover the 50 billion in losses that was caused because they didn’t do mandated upgrades to the utility lines as part of a previous rate increase. It’s the ultimate heads I win tails you lose scenario.

      So wait, NV which has kept all of its NG generating capacity has much lower prices than CA which has gotten rid of much of their NG and nuclear for renewables?  But Reddit tells me daily that solar, wind, and other renewable sources are cheaper.  How is this possible?

      From Michigan: there’s a special place in hell that awaits our providers DTE and Consumers

      For a moment i thought this map was bs but apparently it’s inflation adjusted.

      Know y’all lying about Georgia. We’re still paying back for plant Vogtle and the data centers monthly

      Just want to point out that there is a decent correlation between the states with the most renewable investment, and the states with the least cost increases.

      I think if we looked, we’d find that the real driver of cost increases is aging infrastructure and keeping power plants open long past their intended life cycles.

      Upgrades are costly up front expenses, but they do pay dividends in the long run.
