Electric Rates Are Up
* I don’t know why you singled out the customers of San Diego Gas & Electric as the focus of your article on massive electricity rate increases (July 17). Electricity rates have increased more than 100% in other areas. Our most recent bill showed an increase from $.0566 per kilowatt-hour last month to $.1145 per kwh. This is particularly galling in view of the fact that we buy our electricity from an alternate source, Green Mountain, that generates power from renewable resources. Shouldn’t we receive some sort of discount?
