摘要: Abstract Traditionally, there has been a premium in green pricing plans for electricity supply with high renewable energy content. Using sample of 710 offered December 2018 by Texas's competitive retailers to residents Dallas, Houston, Corpus Christi and Abilene, we document that is no longer statistically significant retail pricing. Attributable the declining cost energy, this finding's policy implication continuing development unlikely adversely impact residents.
