My bill went up 22%, though usage was up as well due to a colder than expected January.
I don't use Con ED. I use one of the ESCos
The shut down of Indian Point by Cuomo , accounting for 25% of energy consumption in NY, is the biggest driver. Fracking in upstate NY was stopped as well, so now NY is an importer of fuels, either from other states or Canada
What people don't get, is that electricity is generated by fossil fuels. So home heating is generated primarily from coal and oil.
Also, EV cars, trucks, buses end up using more coal, oil, natural gas . Electricity is is not cheap

When I switched over it was a little higher than ConEd but I don't mind paying for a good cause.
