Take a Cool Guess—The Fun Quiz on Renewable Energy and Environmental Sustainability. Today’s Topic: Texas’s Deregulated Electricity Market Cost Residents More Than the Loss of Power

Question: From the Wall Street Journal: Texas’s deregulated electricity market, which was supposed to provide reliable power at a lower price, left millions in the dark last week. For two decades, its customers have paid more for electricity than state residents who are served by traditional utilities, a Wall Street Journal analysis has found.

How much more did those deregulated Texas residential consumers pay for their power since 2004 than they would have paid at the rates charged to the customers of the state’s traditional utilities?

Answer: Can be found at Clean Energy Answers.
