PGE is raising their damn rates again.

 This is probably why I've been swamped with calls lately from these assholes. Mr. Ellis we can help you weatherize your house. Mr. Ellis we can replace your windows. Mr. Ellis we can replace your door.

If they can do all that why can't they quit doing that, save all that money, and just lower my damn rates.

My last bill I am getting charged for peak hours of use a rate of $0.62569 per kwh. Off peak is $0.50269.

In four years, 2027-2030, they gonna raise their rates about $4.5 billion per year.

Assholes.

  1. And nobody's fighting agains't this. In the 1980s I was paying 7 1/2 cents a kwh. Then they went to tier pricing and prices skyrocketed . They always get their way because they get what the liberal overlords in the PUC want. NOBODY IS GOING TO SAVE US. Go solar if you can.

  2. Eventually it will be cheaper to produce your own. Then it would be reliable, so they won't allow it if you ask.

  3. The "utilities", especially the electricity providers, exist to make as much money as possible...NOT to provide a service to society. Once you understand this reality everything else makes sense. It's why I got the bullet and installed 10+Kw of panels and 20KwH of batteries.from May through September my electric bill is just the $19 connection fee. And even during the winter my bill is at most $120... usually less.

    1. What batteries are you using? My 2 backup batteries appear to be losing capacity and I would like to get a better brand.
