[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What income level would be considered "high income level" to subsidize the energy costs for the lower income levels?[/quote] Personally I feel like they should structure it like DC does with the impervious surface charge. Designate a baseline "reasonable house usage" (average for a 3br rowhouse with modern A/C and heat pump, let's say) and anyone using more than that pays into the subsidy, with bigger payments the more Kw/h you use. That way people choosing to live in massive, wasteful houses that take kilowatt after kilowatt to heat and cool pay the most while people who choose to live in more efficient spaces pay less.
