Electricity is routinely subsidized for large companies building new factories such as the GigaFactory Tesla is building in Nevada.
You can also look up "name of area / state" and search for electrical tariffs.
- rglullis 4y agoOk, but these subsidies are not based on a specific group. Some might think to be bad to subsidize Tesla, but would there be such a thing as subsidies for weed farmers? The reason I am asking: unless there are such subsidies, it would mean that people pay proportional to their usage, so OP's joke about "electricity neutrality" would not only be wrong, it would be against net neutrality as well.

Here is one. https://www.epelectric.com/files/html/Rates/TX_Tariff_Schedules/TX_Sch_No._34_Cotton_Gin.pdf https://www.epelectric.com/files/html/Rates/TX_Tariff_Schedu... Such things are complicated to figure out fully, the subsidized power might not be subsidized directly by the power generators / power distributors. In some cases two bills are generated for the duration of the power subsidy so the subsidized part only sees the subsidized rate.
