wow thats crazy. just checked our bill and we are at 31/kw. i would assume that would be a SIGNIFICANT savings in electric over gas.

edit, gas over electric

Hmmm, something doesn't sound right here.  I've looked at dozens (if not hundreds) of utility bills over the years and have never seen an effective KWH rate anything close to that high...

To calculate the effective rate, simply divide the total KW usage by the bill total. For instance 1000 KWH usage and $100.00 invoice total would mean an effective rate of $0.10 per KWH....

yeah i was way off. its actually .15. i was looking at the complete wrong section of the bill!

Easiest way to know the REAL cost, as Rich says there maybe taxes or something... so just take your bill and divide it by the KW used.  Done!

I wish we had gas, but none in the area. Propane is to high.
