Any chance you would qualify for LIHEAP? They can help out a bit.

So any energy experts wanna chime in on how long these ridiculous rates and etc will keep going on? I know global shit like the war in Ukraine has to do with it and it's hella complicated but if anyone could talk about how we get rates lower - if there's anything people can do from here - that would be great.

No, I can't qualify for LIHEAP and that's fine. I'm just shocked at the size of my bill.

Aside from investing in newer and diversified infrastructure (hydro, solar, etc) and making utilities public, there are only... less savory... options.
