Some states have vastly higher energy costs, tho, don't they? Bit weird to compare the whole US to selected European countries, which represent completely different energy strategies and subsidy policies, while also being heavily affected by the war in Ukraine.
- thehappypm 1y agoYeah, new england for example has high energy costs because of 1) a lack of local energy sources and 2) reluctance to build new gas pipelines.
- fred_is_fred 1y agoIt's $0.11 kWh here and we have plenty of renewables and a growing population. OTOH I have city owned utilities and not a public company.
- kgwgk 1y ago> selected European countries The two largest in the EU by population (20% and 15%) and GDP (24% and 16%).
- jijijijij 1y agoWell, yes, then compare them to California and Texas not some mix of flyover states. I mean, what’s the point anyway? Taxes, subsidies, natural resources, industry and geography are so vastly different between those countries.
