The outrage is real, because production is less than half the story.

In the past 10 years.

The supply margin (declared capacity - demand) has reduced by half.

Electricity prices have increased 250%(edit: from 0.11 to 0.25).

And the 9-fold relative increase in imports (1% to 9%) definitely contributes to that increase.

Before you say it's all inflation, I believe inflation is not that high over the same period, and consider the role that electricity price hikes have played on inflation.
