The California Legislative Analyst's Office issued a report a few days ago titled “Assessing California’s Climate Policies—Residential Electricity Rates In California." It is written with the premise that the Golden State must stick to its foolish net zero plans but can’t hide the serious obstacles to the fantasy.
The average rate is misleading. The actual rate paid by San Diego home owners is 57 cents/kwh on peak. Peak being when you might want to run your air conditioner. Oh and SDGE, PG&E, SCE are asking for substantial rate increases.
It takes some courage by those authors to tell the Emperor that he has no clothes. California has given us a great lesson in what NOT to do. I bet that an honest evaluation would show that they actually increased CO2 emissions by all the nonsense they have done. I am sure that they would shoot that messenger!

Great point!
