> Thanks to nearby Niagara Falls, Plattsburgh has a quota of cheap electricity available at a low rate

Plattsburgh is 300 miles away from Niagara Falls, on the other side of the state! I don't know why Plattsburgh prices are so low, but it's certainly not proximity to the Robert Moses Niagara Power Plant.

But it is. The town is allocated cheap electricity from Niagara Falls, and until recently, did not use its full quota.
