Residents of Northern California are currently facing some of the highest electricity rates in the United States, a situation that has sparked widespread concern and inquiries. The San Francisco Chronicle has highlighted the issue, pointing to recent rate hikes by Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) as a significant factor contributing to the increased costs. Articles and reports have been dedicated to explaining the reasons behind these high rates, including a detailed Q&A session with journalist Julie Johnson, aimed at addressing consumers' questions and concerns about the escalating bills. Additionally, commentary on the situation has pointed to the irony of California's utility prices being the highest in the nation despite PG&E's history of operational challenges, including its role in several massive wildfires attributed to its infrastructure.
