加州高电率可能阻碍绿色努力 新的研究警告 California's high electricity rates may stall green efforts, new study warns.
立法分析员办公室(LAO)的一项新研究警告说,加利福尼亚州高电费几乎是全国平均水平的两倍,可能会阻碍其绿色过渡努力。 A new study by the Legislative Analyst's Office (LAO) warns that California's high electricity rates, nearly double the national average, could hinder its green transition efforts. 尽管国家制定了雄心勃勃的环境政策, 高成本却降低了居民转向电动车辆和电器的吸引力。 The high costs make it less appealing for residents to switch to electric vehicles and appliances, despite the state's ambitious environmental policies. 该研究表明,立法者必须解决电价问题,以有效支持国家的绿色倡议。 The study indicates that legislators must address electricity pricing to support the state's green initiatives effectively.
