The Electricity Authority (EA) of New Zealand is facing heavy criticism for its management of soaring wholesale power prices, which have doubled in recent weeks due to low hydro lake levels. Associate Energy Minister Shane Jones has condemned the EA as ineffective, prompting calls for increased transparency regarding power pricing. Meanwhile, in the U.S., a new poll reveals that approximately 70% of Americans report that extreme heat has significantly impacted their electricity bills, with many attributing this to climate change. Individuals like Levena Lindahl in North Carolina have seen their monthly bills double, while Jim Graham in Phoenix worries about the safety of his pet during extreme temperatures. The survey highlights that extreme heat affects not only utility costs but also daily activities and health, with 40% of respondents noting impacts on sleep and exercise routines.
