I can believe it. My wife called back.
We're paying 12c a kw/h. I guess
Wow, that's pretty high! Where are you?
Chicago suburb. We have a nuke plant like 30 minutes away too. I'm not
surprised though. There's probably some stupid local tax on power so
someone can collect a pension while being hired back to do the same job at
their old salary.
Turns out she calculated that number from the after-tax bill amount. So
that includes all the taxes and fees also. She says all the taxes and fees
are based on kw/h anyway, so it's a reliable number. It might end up being
a little less though depending on how they calculate the taxes.
