MANY years ago I read the refrigerator was good for ~ $30 / month.
I have a friend in Vermont, just the other day we were talking on the phone about my electric bill taking a fairly large jump, and he mentioned his bill was $87 last month.
This is with 3 freezers and a refrigerator, electric water heater, burns wood for heat, grows a few beef cows and a garden (hence the need for freezers), lives alone on 100 acre farm his grandfather originally bought around 1927 or so.
probably getting his electric from a utility that generates from water power - here on long island we generate with nat gas n oil ..... our price about 27cents per kwh... prob the highest in the land...
It's up all over...
Or
Time Of Use Rates:
WOW That looks like you would get a $400+ bill for just a 1000KW
1000KW here where I live in PA is still only around $125...
And that's current... after the rates jumped 23% & then another 7% last summer.
You guys are getting raped.
