a bunch of people were buying power under Griddy -- which is outright wholesale prices instead of going into some sort of energy company directly.
When prices spike up to more than $11 a kilowatt hour, yeah, shit gets expensive quick. --- Remember that I won't rest, 'til we share the same tense Just know, to me, you're better late than never again. ... Copied to Clipboard!

One wholesale power supplier, Griddy, made a surprising decision. CEO Michael Fallquist told Griddys 29,000 customers to abandon his service and switch providers: We want whats right by our consumers, so we are encouraging them to leave. I don't know what that is supposed to accomplish if they're all kinda going through the same network anyway? --- FFXIV: Lucius Hexenseele (Brynhildr) | RS3: UltimaSuende . 99 WC/Fish/Cook/Fletch/Div/Mining/Smithing/Thieving/Crafting/RC https://letterboxd.com/BMovieBro/ ...

Texas bit more than they chew when they decided to have their own power grid instead of joining say the midwest's or the mountain state's grid networks. They had more of a responsibility and nearly 2 1/2 decades to upgrade their grid for winter weather because when the power goes, no help would come.

My heating bill was $180 last month (combines water, gas, sewer) in Nebraska. We had some cold ass days this week but nothing too crazy compared to normal winter if it goes up to thousands of dollars Im literally not going to pay it because I dont have that kind of money and neither do most normal Americans. --- "I like turtles" ...
