    Ah, a propaganda piece to help us swallow Rocky Mountain powers 18% rate increase. So they go to a completely off grid remote town (pop of less than 300) ran off diesel generators as a comparison to make us feel better. Nice try.

    Thats what my bill is every month. And i use very little electricity. But this is in ohio, not Utah.

    Just because we are paying “the lowest in the nation” doesn’t justify a rate increase. Contact the public service commission and ask questions. Make your voice heard. How much have their costs increased? Does that justify the increase they want? Get involved!

    If these peoples bills are so high, then solar and battery home installations make a huge amount of sense, with a very short payoff period, maybe as short as 3-5 years. Ditch these money hungry criminals running the local power utility!

    Town is so remote that it’s not on the electrical grid.
    PS - why is local news mixing and matching electrical rates of a town in the middle of nowhere to the rest of the state? Poor reporting or???

    Bermuda's residential rate is $0.52/kwh. The island's power is by Diesel generators producing 165 MW. Their fuel must be brought in by tanker ships.

    I’m surprised they don’t just all buy their own gas generators.

    Unplug everything. Get solar panels. Take pictures of your meters every month or more, maybe every week. Do one month you check it daily for a baseline.

    And what is so ridiculous is solar panels would just make so much sense and would cost so much less that it’s not even something that should be up for debate

      We used to check blood type to see if people were even capable of breeding together unfortunately we can't discuss why GE had to stop manufacturing appliances in Mexico or say black in Spanish because everyone has feelings and a failure to communicate.
