Production, Transmission, and Delivery.
Small govt is my Jive
rye we got that over here
Production company sells the power. Transmission maintains the insfrastructure, Delivery sells the electricity to the customer.
electricity itself has never been cheaper.
Yet the final product price that you pay for, has never been more expensive.
Production creates the power rather
sounds like a good way to pay 3 times for a single service
It's a LOT cheaper under that system than it is in the part of the state I live in
which is 100% government fault since theyre the ones that are adding +70% of the price in taxes
where we've got one company, take it or everything in your fridge rots.
welcome to my country rye
That is literally the situation
plenty of competition tho
One of the things is, you can actually CHOOSE to go with a 'green energy' company
that only buys from Wind Farms
but they all cost tons of money due to the phonebook of taxes added
Or you can chose to not care about the environment and go cheap if you like.
lol ur describing the situation here 😄
because those green energy companies pay a fuckton for those solar farms
and wind farms
im not from texas
Especially pharmaceuticals and energy.
I know.
But i didnt know texas was like this as well
A large portion of it is.
Certain parts rebelled against it because they were afraid of the new-fangled 'Smart Meters'.
They'd rather pay a guy a $50 connection fee.
Tbh i would too
I got "smart meters" on my heaters
I live smaller then before
better isolated then before
And i have never in my life paid more for heating then now
does electricity even need to be taxed?
It is here
I mean...
but why, what's the reasoning behind it?
And its not even a light tax, its a ridiculous tax
It depends on what you think the government should be doing, Shin.
If you think the government should be active in a caretaker role for people
then the taxes are necessary.
