Rising summer power bills in the US disproportionately affect low-income families, who are at higher risk of power shut-offs and dangerous heat exposure. Texas is experiencing record-breaking power demand and prices due to economic growth and increased demand from data centers and cryptocurrency mining. Investment in electric infrastructure is needed to ensure reliable and affordable electricity delivery. Natural gas is seen as a necessary resource to meet growing electricity demand. Climate change is expected to raise energy costs by nearly 8% this summer. Advocates call for more support for low-income households and building code upgrades for air conditioning. #EnergyCosts #LowIncomeFamilies #ElectricInfrastructure #ClimateChange...
