Is electricity still a good value?

The val­ue of elec­tric­i­ty remains very high. The nation­al cost of elec­tric­i­ty today, when adjust­ed for infla­tion, is less than what it was in 1980. Very few com­modi­ties have remained such a good val­ue. Com­pared to oth­er con­sumer prod­ucts and ser­vices, elec­tric­i­ty is a bar­gain.
