Southern California (SDGE) charges tiered pricing, depending upon the hours you use energy.
You use a lot during 4pm to 9pm.......you're getting hosed, big time. AND - because in 2020, CA enacted a law that all new homes had to be built with solar, SDGE cried boo hoo that they werent getting the same profits as usual - so they raised prices. bastards. |

I'll bring in a copy of the bill. Not only the kw/h, but they some really wonky surcharges. Something like a charge to "produce energy".
These are almost as back to decipher then the old day telephone bills. |

The #@$#@'s never once mentioned that what is entirely driving this is air conditioning use which no, I'm not going to stop running my AC when it's still 100 degrees out. And on the supply side 4~5 pm is too late for effective solar. Some sort of industrial battery storage ability to shift supply a few hours is sorely needed. Yes, a few residentials' solar installations have battery packs. But most don't because they add a lot to the cost. |

I have Entergy of Arkansas.
The ECR will increase from $0.00959 per kilowatt hour to $0.01785 per kWh, or from the current rate of just under 1 cent per kWh to 1.8 cents beginning with April 2022 billing. This was a ridiculous rate increase, almost doubled. I see what some of you are paying and I am astounded. As much as the change in my rate is atrocious, what some of you all have been and or are paying now is just mind boggling. |

I noticed a while back that my natural gas rates were about 70 percent higher than last year. It's going to be a long, cold winter.

I have some irrigation engines on Natural Gas. I’m acutely aware of the price. I haven’t thought about a hedge in a lot of years. Might be time.
