  "Summary": "<p>This is the price of electricity since 1980.  The recent growth spike is not likely to slow down unless there is massive economic upheaval, which I am not currently expecting.  Even then, we are so behind in infrastructure improvements just to manage what we have that we still have to spend to get even.  Case in point: when I moved into my house 16 years ago, I paid $.125 cents per kWH; I now pay only $.141 cents per kWH.  That is only 12.8 % raise in 16 years, far below inflation and far below what is needed to keep up.  I expect massive increases in electrical rates in the coming decade from my utility in order for them to catch up.  </p>",
