NY State’s HUGE Electricity Price Hikes Caused By ‘Idiotic Green Policies’
lBetter sit down before you open your next Con Ed bill: Rates are set to soar, starting next month — and double over the next two years.

On Thursday, the state’s Public Service Commission OK’d hikes of 9.1% for electricity and 8.4% for gas, starting in August, along with additional jumps through 2025.
At that point, typical bills will have doubled, from about $70 a month to $140 — or an extra $840 a year.
A whining letter from the City Council demanded that Gov. Kathy Hochul use her executive powers to stop the pain.
