I am interested to compare Electricity Charges between Upstate NY and other parts of the country, especially down south, like in NC and SC.
If you have time to take a look at your Electric Bill, and post your rates, that would be great.
No need to list out all the details as below, I am just curious about the "added fees" VS the actual KWH's used, and of course YOUR price per KWH.
IOW, does your utility have as much and as many "add on" charges??
I'm thinking it's not so much the KWH rate, but all the tacked on charges that make NY electric so expensive.
This is a commercial account, 230V 200AMP 3Phase.
As of Feb 3rd 2014: (Pretty slow in the shop, so the numbers are relatively small)
Numbers listed are -per month-
Basic service charge $100.66
Meter charge 2.21
Meter service charge 11.14
Meter data Svc chge 3.10
Demand 4.6265KW 37.80
Revenue decoupling mech 4.81
Reliability support svcs chg 3.42
NYS assessment 1.00
SBC/RPS chrg 3.14
Total $167.28
So $167.28 is what they call the "Electricity Delivery Charges"
This is before I turn on anything for the month, and just for the privilege of having the wires connected to my
building.
My electric comes from a 3rd party provider, US Energy partners.
Total electric usage and charges are as follows:
OFF peak 301kwh @ .08008 $24.10
ON peak 239kwh @ .1505 $35.96
Total "Supply Charges" $60.06
So I pay $167.28 in fees and charges and use only $60.06 in actual electric charges.
The $100.66 for basic service seems insane to me.
Just a few years ago it was around $50/month, and I remember back in the early 90's it was around $22/ month.
