Georgia Power review: GA Power and their investors are exploiting customers through a loophole for the benefits of them both

We must unite and take a stand against GA Power. GA Power is accumulating significant expenses and transferring these costs to consumers through fees and surcharges on our electric bills. For instance, consider the nuclear construction recovery costs. They may claim this is standard practice. We should question that assertion. If we were to pass our rent, car payments, and insurance costs to GA Power as fees, do you really believe they would accept it? So why should we accept it when they impose it on us? The reason GA Power shifts these costs onto us is to minimize their upfront financial risk for themselves and their investors. Now, who ends up bearing the burden of these expensive projects? We, the consumers. These expenses amount to billions of dollars and have been sanctioned by the GA Public Service Commission. The actual increase in electricity bills for GA Power customers is much greater than what was initially estimated. Transferring these construction costs to consumers disproportionately impacts low-income families and could worsen energy poverty.

I call for unity; together, we can confront GA Power.
