What do you pay per kWh at home?

[Lightning.Dav]

Many people fail to add in all variable costs.

Yeah, for me it is .13 to .17 based on kWh used per month. But dividing my bill by the kWh it's always close to .25 per kWh.

Many people fail to add in all variable costs. Last I looked, about 85% of our cost wasn't for the electricity, it was for distribution, etc.

My off-peak rate of $0.05267 includes all variable costs. Generation alone would be $0.02794.

Monopolies doing what monopolies do… got to love non competitive markets and no one breaking them up.

In most places these monopolies are regulated and need to get permission and provide justification for any rate increases.

the PSA in Georgia is considering Georgia Power's current request to increase rates by about 12% over the next three years. Ga Power can't just raise rates on their own, although it's probably rarely turned down.

There was an article today about National Grid asking state regulators to increase rates by 64% starting in November 2022.

National Grid Mass has a new program I am testing which gives you TOU credits
Charge on Mon-Fri 9pm to 1pm (following day) and earn credits
Winter [10/1 to 5/31] credit rate is 3 cents a KWH
Summer [6/1 to 9/30] credit rate is 5 cents KWH

Charge anytime you NEED to charge but you will not earn credits out side the designated time frames.

PS, Attleboro has an alternate ENERGY source (Constellation) locked in at a lower rate to 12/31/2023, though we might see some of the delivery fee increases the NG might charge!

Our Aug/Sept bill

Next bill will show the EV charging TOU credits

I’m on Cape Cod, I’m paying 34.1 cents per kWh for standard residential service. There is no tiered service available here for reduced rates overnight. I was paying much less in AZ when I left a couple years ago. What is everyone else paying at home?

Based on the seemingly high price of electricity, it doesn’t appear that I’m really saving much money vs my 1500 ecodiesel pickup. I’ve driven 1020.8 miles at 2.3 kWh average according to the truck, so with my home energy rate of $.341 443.8 kWh works out to $151.34. My 1500 diesel averages about 27 mpg, so at $4.89 per gallon of diesel that works out to 835.62 miles for the same cost. There was an article today about National Grid asking state regulators to increase rates by 64% starting in November 2022. If my electric rates go up to 55.9 cents per kWh the diesel truck will win out until diesel prices are $6.56 per gallon. With OPEC cutting production by 2 million barrels per day we might get there.

Damn, 64% increase? That is not good news.

$0.107/KWh, inclusive of all taxes & fees

As a follow-up, residential customers here in Oregon on Pacific Power have two Time-of-Use plans we can opt into...these posted rates don’t show the additional fees and costs added to the bill

Or……..:

I have the same deal where I am, Constellation charges 0.10/kWh for electricity and NG tacks on 0.15/kWh for distribution and other "stuff". So, is the 0.10/kWh from Constellation "locked in"?

In theory, in application on the other hand...

In application, I am paying the same rate today as I did a year ago. I am sure that will go up after the next rate review, but then it will still be predictable for another year. I wonder how many people in Texas think that their "non-monopoly" system is better.

BED in Vermont also offers credits if charging happens between 10pm - 12pm (noon). We end up paying $0.08/Kwh. The incentive is set at 45% our billed rate which is nice for now.​

Attached are screen grabs of parts of my bill.

Our price with PG&E is effectively between $0.32 to $0.49. When I charge, price is either $0.39 or $0.49 (due to Tier 2 or higher).

This screenshot was created in May and price is one cent less. Fortunately I have solar to cover 100%. PG&E just sucks.

Long Island is kind of “scammy” where you have to add delivery fee plus actual energy fee to get your real kwh charge but around
.27 during the day and when I’m charging .14 at night , but moving to the night tier raised my day tier rate
