My home electric bill has basically doubled in the past 4 months! WTF is going on?

Your usage is huge! 2,474! 5/27 - 6/25, 881 costing $192... How much of that is EV charging?

Go to your Ford App. Select the energy tab for your truck. Look at the history and will show you how much energy you use to charge your battery. Add all those kw for the entire billing cycle and multiply by 8.5cents. Your consumption for your truck versus the rest of your residence. Solar will help immensely.
It does for me.

Why are you telling me?

My usage, less EVs, for around the same period was 591 as compared to your 1,400... Do you have an electric dryer? Electric stovetop?

Spa/hot tub
Two EV’s
Electric dryer (all other appliances are gas)
Also a fairly hungry network and audio stack.

My bad. It wasn’t intended for you. Sorry.

Was it intended for me? I’ve been sharing my exact EV usage already? Not sure the Ford app is going to give me any more insight.

You don’t expect the data centers to pay for their own electric use do you? It’s the rate payers that always pay for line updates and because the data centers are connected to the grid the rate payers must pay for their generators as well! Don’t worry though they will put it into your bill over the next 40 years.
