I would be curious to know if that article checks out factually.

I've read that there is going to be a 50% increase, and that there is an optional 7 month deferral, but I haven't seen it published anywhere what the actual rate and additional fees will be. I am revisiting switching to WGES and would like some hard numbers for comparison. I am also curious about getting solar from Citizenre / Renu and potentially locking in a rate for a longer term, but assume that is going to take a few months to set up at least if my house is even eligible.

I can't imagine the havoc this will wreck on many families budget, and right at the height of air conditioning season too. BGE was never cheap, and this big increase will hurt. Ultimately we'll all learn to use our energy resources more wisely (if only to reduce our bills). What a nightmare waiting to happen.
