What kwh are you paying?

[T-Mac]

I was paying 27 cents per kwh with the company I have had for years.Their rate has tripled in the last 3 months.Cancelled and switched to another with a more reasonable rate

How can you cancel and switch? Here you pay what they charge, don't like it then try living without electricity.

 

[Trey T]

8.9kwh

 

[Richard Cranium]

almost .10, and have no choice, Pacific Power and Light. If you don't like them, generate your own....

Different states have different regulations regarding your electric provider. If you are out in a rural area, you probably only have the local co-op and that's it... But in cities & suburbs you can choose from a handful of "retail electric providers"...

Here we pay 13-15 cents per kwh for residential... I've seen some plans go as low as 9 cents if you use like over 2000 kwh a month...

I still think it is kind of dumb that one company owns and control the infrastructure, but all these other companies can sell you "power"... It all comes from the same place...

I can choose from about 30 providers-.27 per kwh seems like gouging to me-local average .055 low to .09 high

 

[aandpdan]

.18 per kwh here in MA. The breakdown is .10 per kwh to make it and .08 to get it to the house.

30 providers?!? Why would you ever go with anything but the lowest bidder? Seems to me it would be hard to upsell me electricity . We are right around .09kwh here.

 

[dwright406]

I'm at $.092 kwh currently.
I had been with the "major" provider of my area for years paying $.155 kwh until I switched companies for the lower rate, my bill went from ~$250 per month to this month is $85.

About a week or 2 after I switched I had an offer from another company for $.085 kwh, but I had just switched and didn't want to go through the hassle again for a little bit lower rate.

Just signed on our new house today. Should be in within the next 48 hours (hopefully tomorrow). Has two solar panels on the roof that the inspector said should run the house for about 3/4 of the year. The previous owners supplied a monthly expense list for several years for electrical expenses for the place - average is around $60 a month, I'll have to look into kwh cost to give a good answer though.

Excluding all the various "schemes" (like nights or weekends for free)... You are basically paying for customer service and that they will bill you properly and on time. Also some advertise low rates but you have to use an insane amount of power to get that price, otherwise you pay a lot higher rate.

Mine comes to 13 cents per kwh here in Wisconsin

[Architorture]

.0602 but there are a few lower providers available...most of the the they are variable rates though that will jump up quite a bit after the introductory period

 

[Majordisorder]

Our co-op has a base fee of 25.00 and then you get to pay about .09.

 

[Autorotica]

Are you dividing your total bill by your KWH hour usage to include all taxes, generation, distribution, surcharges.... Total costs?

$0.1313

Here in Ontario last month:
On peak: 12.9 cents = $17.76

On top of this there was delivery: $77.99
Regulatory charges: $4.73
Never ending; Debt retirement charge: $5.12
And to cap things off; HST tax: 19.33.

This was an easy month, wood heat for house and hot water.

We switched to IDT energy because they were supposed to shop rates and get us a better deal..... well that lasted as long as the introductory price. Bills have been stadily going up and we finally had enough. we cancelled IDT energy and went back to penelec. IDT was at 23.5 cents and penelec was at 7.7 cents.

[Steevo]

.109 per/KWH here.

This was calculated by adding the total amount from all of the bills from the last 12 months ($717.35), and dividing by the total KWH from all of those same bills (6535).


No option, we can't pick our power company.

 

[jhall0712]

.07 something I think. Haven't had a bill over $190 in two years. 1500-2000 kw used per month. Last months bill was $120 I think. All electric home.

Just locked in at that rate again for 12 months.
