LIPA charges customers a fuel cost surcharge of 10.3 cents per KW in addition to the .075 per KW They dont call it a rate hike so they can avoid going thru the public service commision.

| With the added "fuel" charges we are $.058 off peak (noon to 4p and 9p to 8a) and just about $.22 on peak. The regular flat rate is just over $.11. |

| In Texas, we can choose our retail electric provider and rates are running anywhere from 10 cents to 18 cents per kWh right now. All rates are flat and you can go with a month to month contract where the rates float depending on market conditions all the way to locking yourself into a 5 year contract. Average rate though is between 13 and 14 cents per kWh. |

| Seattle, Washington area (25 mi east of Seattle actually), under Puget Sound Energy, non-peak is $0.08 and $0.10 peak/over. We have all hydro and wind source power from BPA (a lot of which is sold to other states like CA) so it's cheap for peak here. |

Most of Florida is in the range of 9-12 cents per kwh.
DOE has some national maps showing rates for every state |

Without data, you only have an opinion. |

It's difficult to determine an exact rate, since there all different charges. A customer charge, distrubution rate, transmission rate along with a dozen other minor chrages, not to mention different rates for Summer vs. Winter charge. but if I Divide my bill vs. how much power I used last month, I come up with 14.5 cent per KWH.
This is for South Jersey, Atlantic City Electric. |

I also used TechGromit's approach (divide the entire bill by KWH) and I pay ~ 10.8 cents per KWH.
I'm just west of Albany, NY (North Greenbush) and my electric provider is New York State Electric & Gas (NYSEG). |

I live in SW New Hampshire and here are my numbers from different sources:
EIA - State Electricity Profiles: 13.84 cents/KWH
New Hampshire Office of Energy and Planning: 16.46 cents/KWH
My actual bill for November: 18.37 cents/KWH
Trust but verify.

South central Kansas, between Wichita and the Oklahoma border.
Local electric coop for our rural property, doesn't generate own power, buys and distributes from Westar:
Power cost is 10.7 cents/kwh...October consumption was 238 kwh's, w/taxes/surcharges etc. 20.2 cents/kwh
In city of Wellington which has a power plant that is used as backup and to generate electricity when cheaper than buying it.
Power cost is 7.06 cents/kwh...October consumption was 159 kwh's, w/taxes/surcharges etc. 17.7 cents/kwh
If we consumed more KWH our monthly actual cost/KWH would reduce as the "other" charges would be spread over more KWH's.

Taking the total annual bill and dividing it by the kWh supplied gives me Can$0.07 per kWh inclusive of tax and standing charges. This is for 18330kWh.
I'm in Montreal, Quebec and we're pretty much 100% hydroelectric here.

| Wow! I didn't realize how much the cost of electricity varies from location to location. Here in Southern Michigan, I'm paying 11¢ per kWh for normal home electricity and with time of day meter, for the geothermal unit and supporting equipment, like the well and water heater, the rate is 6¢ per kWh. During the summer the time if day metered electricity is 9¢ during the day and 6¢ during the evening hours. These values take into account taxes and all other fees. I just divide the bill total by the total kWh used. |

| Wow! Energy conserving technologies like geothermal and solar thermal make a lot more sense when you have to pay more like 15 centers per kWh. |

In south east PA PECO is the supplier.
~$ 0.147/Kwhr during heating season
~$0.147/Kwhr for first 600 kwhr and then $0.167 /Kwhr beyond that during cooling season.
If you go all electric, then PECO gives you a rebate above 600 Kwhr used during the heating season. You then pay $0.077 /Kwhr beyond the 600 Kwhr.
