More reactions are pouring in after Gov. Greg Abbott announced a plan on Tuesday to break energy monopolies like the one in San Antonio with CPS Energy.

"Our energy costs have been going up by the year. My last bill right at this time last year was $280, and this one was $326, so that's almost a $50 increase," said CPS Energy customer Carl Duelm.

Duelm hosted Abbott at his Northeast Side home Tuesday to discuss energy costs.
