Nitpicking Exxon (4.00 / 2)
"2009 Cents/kWhr"

  1. US dollar cents or EUro-cents?
  2. kWhr... it's like "kph" for km/h. Why can't American companies and government organs get SI unit acronyms right even in official releases?

I'm 99% certain that's USD producer cost.  Not the price for the consumer.  

One of the things that I've noticed about my electric company is that they aren't raising generation costs, they are tacking on higher distribution and delivery charges.  So although the quoted generation cost is only $0.04/kWh, I pay $0.147/kwh overall on my bill once those other costs are added in.

And I'll give my consent to any government that does not deny a man a living wage-Billy Bragg
