North Central Florida has FPL and Clay Electric CoOp. I am subjected to FPL, same set up as Progress Energy, customer fee (about $6), use charge (about 5c/kwh), fuel charge (about 6c/kwh), total is 11-12c/kwh. Bill has increased about 2c/kwh in 4 years, all of it in the fuel charge, a 50% increase.

12.1 c/kwh - 100% wind, Reliant Energy, Dallas

[Pablo2079]

$60.07 divided by 664 kwh used = 0.0904668 per kwh

Puget Sound Energy

[oowolf]

$0.057/kwh. Our co-op (Northern Lights) actually owns Kootenai Falls dam, located near Troy, MT.

Do you guys predict a dramatic increase in the Kwh rate? How can the companies be surviving with all the increases in fossil fuels? Anyone know the process that a company has to go through to raise their rates? Again thanks for all the responses

I am copying this from my electric bill, from our utility, Enersource. I thought Ontario had really high electrical rates, but it seems mine are in a similar ballpark to most, at about $0.10 per kWh, all in:

YOUR ELECTRICITY CHARGES
922 kWh @ $.0500 $46.10
374 kWh @ $.0500 18.69
43 kWh @ $.0590 2.55
Delivery 55.19
Regulatory Charges 8.80
Debt Retirement Charge 9.00

Total Electricity Charges $140.33

The bill above is for two months. I use a lot more in summer.
I presume the first lines deal with the actual cost for Enersource buying power and the "delivery" is their overhead and labor for the distribution of the power.

5.7 in BC

16.45 cents a KWH here in central Massachusetts, with a small municipal power company.

National Grid, Upstate New York: 14.5 cents per kWh.

Clay Electric - North Central Florida

$9/month customer charge
9.25 cents / kwh

FPL - Florida Power & Light

$5.34/month customer charge
9.36 cents / kwh - under 1000 kwh
11.39 cent / kwh - over 1000 kwh

$9.75/month Sunshine energy (optional) - Here's what FPL says about this charge:

"For every 10,000 customers who sign up for Sunshine Energy, an additional 150kw of solar will be built in Florida. New solar arrays are scheduled to be announced this year which will be among the largest solar energy producers in Florida.

In addition, for each month that you participate in the program, FPL ensures that 1,000 kWh of cleaner electricity from sources like wind, bioenergy and solar is generated and delivered to power systems serving Florida and other states nationwide."

Total bill for April (less the Sunshine Energy charge): $82.41
$82.41 / 705 kwh => 11.69 cents / kwh

3/2 - 2 people, 1400 sqft, includes water (well)

271 KWH for $31.84 for the month of April in this 1800 sq ft average house near Portland.


$.1175 each. Not bad. Cheap.

What about the total KW used by all of you, fellow posters?

I didn't break out fees and taxes. I just divided my actual bill amount by the KiloWattHours.

Holy cow TJ. You pay a lot! I bet we're under $400/yr!! And if not for this G5 Apple it would be maybe closer to $300.

What do you have [s]growing[/s] going out there anyhow??

[lawnchair]

I find this to be an interesting topic, because it seems no one has a really good sense of what "average" is. It's hard to find online.

Over the last year, 2-person, 1050-sq-ft, 50-year-old house. Kansas. 4928 kWh/$422.21 = 8.57c/kWh.

[IndigoMoon]

This is from my April bill. 1600 sq ft house, 3 adults, built in 1942.
Our average use stays around 1000 KWH / month year round.
My electric company is Ohio Edison. The KWH charge is undefined because they have a sliding scale. The higher the usage, the higher the KWH charge.

Customer Charge 3.86
Delivery Charge 33.19
Transition Charge 8.69
Generation Related Component 66.98
Transmission Related Component 8.70
Field Collection Charge 7.00

Ours is 0.035 in the northwest next to Grand coulee dam.
(3.5 cents)
So, why do you think MICROSTUFT and GOOGLE and YAHOO are building huge computer switching buildings 10 miles fromQuincy? They are GREEN but they like their DAMS too funny!
Ask them about saving then fish, yah shore.
Since it is 33 KWH per gallon of gasoline or diesel then electricity is cheaper than propane or ooil by about four times.
We expect to do fine after the oil crash, the community has first dibs on the power before they can sell it off to others. We pay what it costs to produce it and transmit it, the rest they can sell for profit.
anyone burning coal or oil or propane around here is loony.

Er, we WOULD do fine unless they nook the dam.
10 years ago the rate was 1.7 or about 2 cents per KW
Oh, and the green people were picketing the dam last month to remove the grand coulee dam so fish can run up where they havent run in 40 years.
Guess we could go to burning coal then.
Downstream the air temp is cool, like an airconditioner. The Dam contributes to global cooling, maybe that is why all around the world we are having ice storms in may.
