<p>[quote user="Bucyrus"]</p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size:small;">The electric consumer pays for it. </span></span>[/quote]</p> <p>For the most part this answer is correct. However, there may be exceptions. In Texas we have electric energy competition. People in major cities, outside of Austin and San Antonio, who are captives of public power, have Choice. They can shop for the best deal in town.</p> <p>If power company A is heavily dependent on coal generation, whereas its competition has significant alternative fuels sources for its generation, A and retailers that buy power from it may not be able to pass on all of the incremental cost to the customer. In this case some of the additional cost would be worn by capital or labor or a combination.</p>
