This is a very concerning over-reach of power.... This is also the same oppressive act that is simultaneously being done in Europe. This of course, will hurt our energy security very badly, not improve it. Poor people will be hurt the most from this.

This also takes away the public's energy security, centralizing the public's dependence to one monopolistic energy source, the municipal electric company. This is like turning heating your home into a time share scam, where one company dictates the price and there is no competition or other source.
