Again - yes, you'll save cash, but it's offset by the cost of the bulbs. I think it takes something like a year to offset an led here, with the rates we pay, four months for cfls. The main argument for leds being that they're not cfls...or you want brighter lights at comparable use-cost.
Here in the us, delivery rates are regulated - a utility company would have to go through a special proceeding to make the case for a price increase or if they were going to fold. That said...if a company could and did raise it's prices in the face of reduced demand, you would still be saving..and saving more, on what the energy would cost you running an incandescent at that now higher rate. I'm not sure I understand the question. If you save money at a lower rate, you save more at a higher rate. Numbers, how they work, etc.
