The Op/Ed by Connor Dermody on April 19 misinterprets the electricity rate information given on the Los Alamos County Public Utilities website.

According to the County website, the single rate usage price, as of July 1, 2026, will be $0.151 per kWh until a time-dependent rate structure is implemented.

The planned time-dependent rate structure, after the dual-rate pricing is implemented, the rates will be $0.11 per kWh from 11 p.m. to 5 p.m. and $0.197 from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m.
