There’s a rather prominent base with a large power footprint. So large that it has it’s own substation right off some main interstate power lines. The state has a policy that if you anticipate your electric bill will exceed last year’s electric bill, you can request a waiver. The base facilities person diligently submitted that from 1967 to 2020 when they retired. The 2021 bill was more than an order of magnitude larger. Something like 600K to 20M if I recall. The front office had to go ask the folks in DC for help.
