An explanation of how renewable energy saves you money | Fossil-fuel hacks are lying about renewable energy; don't let them get away with it

I'm 100% on board with renewable energy.

There's just one problem I have right now, if I opt in (and I am opted in) to use renewable energy, I get charged more per kwh than if I were to opt out.

So while there is a lot of misinformation out there against renewables, one thing I see about it costing more has remained true, at least where I live. The power company even states that they charge you more for using renewables. Even if they frame it as being a marginal difference of a few dollars, it's still more expensive, on top of them increasing electric costs year over year.
