Utility companies being forced to shut down coal/gas fired plants to replace with green options (wind/solar). Green options can't replace the mega watts the plants were producing so utilities are forced to buy electricity off the open market. All the while continuing to invest in failed green technology because some fucking libtards set a goal of net zero by 2035 or 2050. All of this equals higher rates for consumers because it cost more to buy electricity on the market and resell it on top of changing infrastructure to meet the mandated target. I wish utilities would tell government to pound sand. But when utilities are bound by the government ( regulated vs unregulated) their hands are tied. It's all bat shit crazy if you ask me. But that's what happens when fools with ideals of grandure run a country unchecked until 2024 came along. I hope all this nonsense can be right ended eventually
