What to you guys pay per kwh?? In Maine its over 16 cents and we're getting a rate increase also. The thing is we heat our homes for the most part with fuel oil. Its always been fuel oil was way cheaper than electricity but right now its real close
Oh, our electricity rates in VA are still cheap as hell, but I have electric heat and AC, an 18% hike is an 18% hike and it still hurts when it comes on top of a $250 electric bill. The rate varies seasonally by about 2 cents; I think with this raise it will be up to an average of around 7 cents/kWh.
Whereabouts in Maine do you live? Bangor Hydro still has quite a bit of cheap hydro power, but they make up the difference with an equal amount of diesel generators.
