Arthur's right. We looked into this issue about a year ago, and the
cost of transmission is about 30% of the cost paid by the homeowner
when a separate billing mechanism is employed by the utility. The
numbers could be even less if there wasn't cost shifting between
transmission and production being sanctioned by regulatory agencies.
The numbers and sources are available in our archives.
