Yeah, it seems specific to Los Angeles County right now. There's even a petition started to audit LADWP. It's a public utility company. We the citizens, own it. So why are we seeing our bills skyrocket that much. Something doesn't feel right.

Do change.org petitions work? I dunno, but are they easy to sign? Yeah. This one calls for demands to ease how crazy LADWP bills have gotten especially in the summertime c.org/NR6M7JcJKp

LADWP is betting on hydrogen to help transform Scattergood. But what happens if the hydrogen isn’t available or isn’t affordable?

Letters to the Editor: Hydrogen is expensive and currently inefficient. The LADWP needs a backup plan
'This is a very expensive solution, with just a single proposed hydrogen-ready power plant expected to cost close to $1 billion,' writes an L.A. Times reader.

Before LA commits hundreds of millions to another combustion plant at Scattergood, shouldn’t we fully test the alternatives?

LA Says It Studied Alternatives to Another Gas Plant. It Left Out the Most Important One.
Before LADWP commits hundreds of millions to another combustion plant, it should test what batteries, solar, EVs, efficiency, and flexible demand can accomplish together.

You wanted to make a comparison to LADWP, so let's look at the big picture. Where would a city owned utility in San Diego get it's power? Yes, from a lot of solar. But it will still require transmission lines. Which run through the backcountry. And who owns those?

LADWP has a very different environment, both regulatory and geographically. Besides, PSPS wasn't even a possibility with any agency prior to 2012.
Also note, San Diego doesn't have the ability to take over someplace like Owens Valley to supply it with power and water. Those days are gone.

My friends in Los Angeles have watched in horror as their LADWP bills (power, water, sewer, etc) skyrocket.
Unlike most utilities, the PUC has no rate authority over LADWP which is owned & operated by the city, Mayor & City Council.

My meter reads 1000 KWH under what they're claiming

Untill very recently LADWP was still getting Utah Coal power. SMUD is doing great on both decarbonization and keeping rates low.
