Electricity is BS
The price is.
I just got my PG&E bill. $0.38 per kwh. WTF!!
My natural gas is $1.23 per therm, or equivalent to $0.042 per kwh.
I don’t know how efficient a natural gas generator is, but even at 20% efficiency that still works out to $0.21 per kwh, and I could use the waste heat to heat my house. Electricity prices in California are bullshit. Someone is making a killing from this.
The next time someone tells you we need electric cars, tell them that the only way to afford them would be to install natural gas generators in everyone’s house. Or maybe we could just use a natural gas powered cars. Gee, what a revolutionary idea that would be.
