Price of electricity in 2023 is down... Due to less fossil fuel...

https://www.utilitydive.com/news/pjm-capacity-auc ... es/625861/

"Cleared steam resources, which are mainly coal-fired, fell 21%, to about 27,680 MW from 34,870 MW. The drop reflected the retirement of coal-fired power plants, according to PJM."

"Overall, about 21.6 GW of coal capacity cleared in the auction, down from 27.4 GW and 39 GW in the previous two auctions, according to Niemann. Looking ahead, coal ash and ozone regulations could drive additional coal units to shut down this decade, he said."

Your bill probably will not go down due to the increased cost of the distribution expenses.
