Coal pricing will be interesting this year. I usually buy in early summer but this year who knows when will be the best time?

I think PPLs price to compare will have to come down in June. No way they can justify 14,6c generation rates when others are offering long term rates below 10c.

PPL rates are 50% higher than most generation suppliers right now. 8to 9c vs 14.6c

Record low Nat gas rates are helping push the price down. $2.17 Last year it was close to $10

I got slammed by sky energy and while fruitlessly trying to get through to a some one to fix it was informed the easiest way to fix it is just chose another supplier and switch it myself.
