Flats, the *costs* of producing energy have gone up across the board - coal, petroleum, natural gas, it's all more expensive than it used to be. Labor costs are higher for everyone. Benefit costs are higher for everyone, especially health care. Environmental regulations are more stringent for everyone. So why do you expect the *price* of energy to have gone down? Competition can't work miracles. At the same time, government regulators can't regulate away economic reality.
