  12. #California's notoriously docile #PublicUtilitiesCommission voted 4-0 to allow a new fixed #fee on bills for energy. State #regulators OK'd new monthly "#utility fee" up to $24 on top of already climbing residential #ElectricBills.

    The fee restructuring is expected to raise bills of up to 4 million customers statewide of Pacific #Gas & #Electric, Southern California Edison and San Diego #Gas & Electric.

    #PublicUtility Commissioner Darcie Houck said “This is a relatively modest charge." #PGE say the fixed #charge will supposedly reduce the per-kilowatt cost of #electricity for all customers and help subsidize greener energy production.
