Electricity Prices

Electricity prices are like weather forecasts—they change often, affect everyone, and sometimes make no sense. Behind each spike or drop? A tangled mess of politics, demand, and fuel costs. Don’t worry, you’re not the only one confused.

LCOE: The true cost of electricity

Realistic image of solar, wind, nuclear, and coal power models on shelves with LCOE price tags in dollars per kilowatt-hour.
