All-sector price changes in all 50 states, 2005-2025.




3/ Earlier I mentioned that there’s zero correlation between renewables penetration and electricity prices. That’s not the case for natural gas. Russia's invasion of Ukraine caused gas prices to rise quickly. Many Americans are still paying the price.

WATCH: Secretary of Energy Chris Wright NUKES CNN for pushing a narrative that renewables were cheaper than oil and gas: “The Lazard report, of course, is crazy, because they use a thing called ‘Levelized Cost of Energy,’ as if they're delivering the same thing. …When you include the backup cost, it's a huge driver of increased cost. … You make energy expensive. People consume less of it, and your industries will leave, and your voters will be angry.”
