Carl-E:

Tell me about it.
Westar and KCP&L just merged into Evergy. KCP&L has been notoriously terrible in north KC for decades. And our franchise fee has now tripled switching over from Westar.
EDIT: 'evergy' clearly being a portmanteau of 'evil' and 'energy', but I'm sure they'll claim it's something else.
