As Natural Gas Costs Rise, Dollar Leakage Worsens
Mar 12, 2008 at 09:50PM
The amount of money leaking out of communities to pay for natural gas is rising as the price of natural gas rises. Even little Santa Fe County, New Mexico, with about 42,000 residential gas accounts, now loses more than $40 million annually as residents purchase the non-local heating fuel. Numbers from the analysis done by Local Energy are shown below, and a flyer for distributing the data can be downloaded here. I'll work on getting commercial numbers too.
