Pacific Gas and Electric Co. monthly bills have risen to $328 this winter, up from $248 a year earlier.
TURN executive director Mark Toney said his organization’s experts analyzing PG&E’s complex multi-year proposal say the increase could be closer to $40 or more per month in year one. And at the end of the four-year term, the cumulative effect of the rate rises would reach about 42%, according to TURN’s analysis of the current proposal.
”Blaming skyrocketing bills on recent increases in gas price is like blaming the iceberg for just the tip, what’s above the water,” Toney said. “The fact is that PG&E has been getting double digit increases year after year.”
