How much does electricity cost where you live? On average I am paying 6.8p per KiloWatt/hour (12.5 US cents per kw/h)

General Purpose Rate:
10.94 pence per KwH 7.44 pence per KwHI'm not sure how to read the differences, but the first us for the first 128 units and the second is for the rest. :~

I pay something like $60 for a quarter year's consumption. I don't really know how much that is per kWh (I never bother to read that damn bill anyway unless it's off the scale). I'm quite conservative when it comes to electricity. At most I have 2 computers, 1 monitor, 1 fridge and 1 freezer and 1 dish washer on at the same time. People think I'm weird during the winter, because my apartment is basically dark as the night. I mean, why keep lamps on if I really don't need it? :) -- Booohoo!

Many electricity companies do this in the UK. If you remember a couple of years back there were adverts on the TV for some electricity company (possibly the electicity division of British Gas) where they were saying they were scrapping the "standing charge" on the bills. Well, that was really a load of old rubbish. The standing charge was there to pay for the fact you had an electric cable running to your house, it was only a few pence per day but a lot of organisations that deal with people on low income campaigned for it to be scrapped, especially as these people didn't use much electricity anyway. So most electricity companies came up with the idea that on each day the first so many units (Kw/h) would be charged at a higher rate in order to compensate. And for the vast majority of people it means absolutely nothing because they are still paying what they would have through the old standing charge anyway. On my bill the higher rate units represents only 5.6% of all the elecriticity I use. So, to take advantage I would have to use a tiny amount of electricity. I could run an electric heater for about an hour before changing to the lower tarriff.

It's $4.80/mo + 10.86 US cents per kWh for my home rate here in Slovakia. Rado

Well, It's kinda the wrong frames of reference because its usually the cost of one control area selling power to another, but the bills are usually something like a quarter million bucks a month here, 100K there. those are per month kinda things... Mark Conger Sonork:100.28396

So long as you can see enough not to trip up or injure yourself then that's fine. But, you sound like Ebenezer Balfour of Shaws: To my surprise, he lit no lamp or candle, but set forth into the dark passage, groped his way, breathing deeply, up a flight of steps, and paused before a door, which he unlocked. I was close upon his heels, having stumbled after him as best I might; and then he bade me go in, for that was my chamber. I did as he bid, but paused after a few steps, and begged a light to go to bed with. "Hoot-toot!" said Uncle Ebenezer, "there's a fine moon." "Neither moon nor star, sir, and pit-mirk,"[2] said I. "I cannae see the bed." "Hoot-toot, hoot-toot!" said he. "Lights in a house is a thing I dinnae agree with. I'm unco feared of fires. Good-night to ye, Davie, my man." [^]

Summer = 7.5 cents per kwh Winter = 5.5 cents per kwh I used to work for an electric utility in the US. One day in the summer of 1999 the going rate for electric energy on the wholesale market was $4000 per mwh (400 cents per kwh). Those companies that didn't profit from this absorbed the cost.

Just lumping all the side fees into the total for last month averages: 9.74 cents(us) per kw/h Fort Worth, Texas I do not mind getting old. It beats all the other options that can think of.
