As Ormat is supplying most of Puna, why are we paying the oil surcharge? The Kona side is requiring the extra power because of their growth, which benefits them.
Put the surcharge fee on those using the juice! It works for income tax, sliding scale. Property value, wages, all benefit from this growth and gives them the means to pay the extra cost. But not puna people. Puna is at the bottom of the heap, "Economically Indigent"
We keep on suffering from the hissing, noxious, gas belching, life threatning geothermal project, run by an awful Corporation. Please eliminate the oil surcharge as geo is so hard to live with already.
Look at your bill, subtract the oil surcharge, would it make a difference?
