Cost of gas

edit

The cost of gas doesn't seem to be the same as generation costs for the electricity... That's like putting the cost of Uranium down, rather than how much it costs for the average kwh to come out of the plant. While cost of fuel makes up a larger part of generating costs for a gas fired plant, I still think it is less than 50% of the total. If it is indeed 7c per kw-hour I think that is very close to being economically competitive with coal or gas, which I believe are in the range of 5c per kw-hour. I can't be bothered to look for a source on this stuff at the moment, however... TastyCakes (talk) 21:42, 7 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
