I'm paying $0.089/ kWh, which is very good for this part of Texas. $0.069 is a good rate. Locking it for a couple of years is pretty darn good. I do not expect that energy prices are going to be going down anytime soon. And yes, the EPA is pushing to shutdown many powerplants around the nation, without concern for if it will hurt grid stability.
