My PGE bill is a little over 50c per kilowatt hour. Its starting to become like a second mortgage or car payment for some. Wondering what other people are paying for their power.

We have a flat monthly fee of $26.50 and usage is $0.1133/kWh (all prices US dollars). It’s also possible to have a Time of Use plan; for residential there’s still the flat $26.50 fee and then peak usage bills at $0.2345/kWh and off-peak at $0.0623/kWh. If you have a bilateral system (solar panels) the credit for power supplied during peak hours is $0.1539/kWh and off-peak is $0.0373/kWh. Integrated battery systems are not allowed if you go with Time of Use metering. For now the basic residential service (same rate all the time) credits solar production at the same rate as consumption, but that could change in the future.

round 175 CAD a month.

It heavily depends on the season. I had a look at the live prices, and currently the price of electricity is about 0.6SEK/kWh.

However, back in 2022-2023 we had electricity prices as high as 2.7SEK/kWh.

Sadly, the EU wants a unified energy grid which will increase the cost of power.

Sweden aslo needs to upgrade the transmission infrastructure between areas

same as you. I wish this state would take responsibility at targeting PGE. especially since they burned down an entire town in 2018. it's honestly the only thing that makes me consider just leaving California for back home.

[–] Dumbkid@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago

$0.35usd per kWh

[–] radicalautonomy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I'd let you know how much I spend in electricity through PGE, but...

  1. I just recently moved in, so I don't have good data for you yet, and

  2. Portland General Electric ≠ Pacific Gas & Electric

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 2 points 3 months ago

We have two rates, this is if you are using over 10kwh per day, the maximum rate: $0.1372 per kwh

I am around $450 per month in the summer, $75 in the winter. Texas. My rate is nominally $0.087 per kwh, but the taxes make it roughly twice that. I have a big house, but it is pretty energy efficient - 2015 construction with mostly Energy Star appliances. I charge a Nissan Leaf daily.

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago (4 children)

This seems backwards. Why more in the summer?

[–] tnarg42@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Texas gets kinda hot in the summer.

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

Doh. Ac. That makes sense lol

[–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Summer is like 40C. Winter is 13C.

Around $400 a month in winter, $100 a month in summer. Australia has the most expensive power in the world

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 3 months ago

€0.20 per kWh, about 30 euro per month

[–] Jourei@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Transmission and taxes etc. all combined amount to 6.8c/kWh.

Spot price for actual power price and it's margin is 0.49 c/kWh. Monthly the price has been between 3-7c/kWh on average this year. Most months I've managed to beat the average price. 😎

[–] pedz@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago

I have no idea. Electricity, heat and hot water are included in my rent.

[–] Meltrax@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

In the summer, $350+ per month. In GBE winter, more like $150 per month.

[–] ChaosCoati@midwest.social 1 points 3 months ago

$0.13213 per kWh plus a $0.58915 per day “customer charge”

[–] Avero@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

about 32ct/kWh including all costs (Germany)
