The Sacramento Municipal Utility District announced last year Sacramento electricity ratepayers would be under a new rate system that charges residential users higher rates between 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. — just in time for everyone to arrive home after work and begin evening family rituals: homework on computers, dinner, television, stereo, baths, laundry, and dishwasher after dinner.”

When I built my new house 5 years ago they forced me into TOU (Time of Use) billing for 3 months. My bill was over $100 for a vacant house with only 1 porch light turned on. My other house on the same street is under Standard Billing and in the Summer Heat never exceeds $250. My neighbor was complaing about his bill one day, it was $900 so I showed him mine and about had a heart attack. She spent half the day on the phone to SCE and got them to change it to Standard Billing, their bill is 1/3 of what it was. I just sold that house and warned the buyer about this but they LIED and told him his bill would be less, he is going to try and change it to Standard Billing.
IF YOU ARE ON TOU, YOU ARE PAYING 3 TIMES THAT OF STANDARD BILLING CUSTOMERS.
Yo, dumbass, you and your demonicRAT friends are the reason for high electricity prices in Commiefornia.
Just to be clear, the dumbass I’m referring to is Navin Newscum.
So,,,,east bejing has their own cheap electricity club ?
So he’s admitting that solar panels and windmills are failures.
It is the standard rat procedure. Cause a huge problem make the big proposal to fix the that you blame on someone else and of course whatever they do will make it worse…repeat.
Create the crisis and then offer to solve it. Nice ploy.
Bingo. DemonicRATS have been running Commiefornia into the ground completely unabated for the last 30 years. There’s scarcely a Republican to be found in statewide office.
One reason is that of the few with the courage to run turned into RINOs a bit after taking office. That is why I left the GOP over a decade ago, they don’t even talk tough.
Pratt is an exception.
You voted for it.
How are all those EVs going to affect the electric system?
I am now 80.
“”So he’s admitting that solar panels and windmills are failures.””

No, of course not. It’s obviously always Trump’s fault, so everyone should vote against the GOP this November so their utility bills will go down. At least, that’s what the lying leftist morons will say.
