Jesus, I had no idea California was that bad. How is that even possible? Our rate is 15c/kwh.

It's PG&E for the most part, and their huge liability payout for burning a city to the ground due to skipping maintenance on their distribution lines.

Some places in California have prices closer to the US average.
