Gas & Electric $$$

JonJ · Oct 7, 2005

Just heard from my good friend who works for NSTAR. The official word is 26% increase for gas and 28% electric!

The cost to produce electricity could not have gone up 28% :?

If they increased the cost of gas and not electric, how many people do you think would start crying that it just aint fair!

Just filled my brandy-new Propane tank - 400 gallons at $2.06. Hopefully, that'll last me the winter. New system, so... we'll see.

Yeah, the time to get it is BEFORE it goes up any higher.

The problem is that the gas and oil to power the generators that make the electricity has gone up. So they have to pass on the costs.
