Is electric pricey where you are? It's been a while since I calculated, but last I checked, electric was cheaper in my area than gas for most of the electric vehicles.

50 cents per kWh sounds fucking insane to me. That's like 5-6 times more than I pay in Canada.

I just checked prices in my region. About 0.07 cents per kWh. Without subsidies. Including "Crimea Tax".

A friend was telling me he pays that much in Hawaii, but you'd probably expect as much on an island like that

[–] Strykker@programming.dev 1 points 6 months ago

Yeah for Hawaii that pricing is sort of expected, but for anything mainland that prices is just disgusting

It's shockingly high. I live in the SF bay area and I'm a bit pissed off at how bad we're getting screwed.
