So it appears that folks here approve of the State of Arizona telling the private utilities operating in that state to whom they can sell the power that they produce. Interesting.

Quote from the article:
"If an economic boycott is truly what you desire, I will be happy to encourage Arizona utilities to renegotiate your power agreements so Los Angeles no longer receives any power from Arizona-based generation."

My thinking too.

I guess people get caught up in emotion.

Who owns the electricity in NC?

As I understand it, the power is owned by the state through agreements signed long ago relating to the sharing of power coming from resources common to multiple states. The power companies carry it and profit from it, but they don't "own" it.

That is not to say there isn't some power generated by the utilities themselves through coal-fired plants or something, but the state does have some say over how the power they "own" is distributed.
