Yeah. There are rates as low as $0.10/kWh available now. Short term of 7 months. Would advise switching to another provider or back to standard offer during month 5 to be safe.

Are you on alternative supply?

We put a lot of effort into making our home as energy efficient (electricity and oil) this year and I think its paying off. Obviously, the warm winter is helping.

I’d definitely look into insulation or alternative suppliers or something to help make your home energy efficient because for two people that seems like a lot and I abused my electric heat 2 years back and had so many things running

itselectric69 t1_j9e4h8q wrote

December $475…. Hot tub and mini splits running 24/7… keep in mind half the month was at the $0.24kw/h rate half was $0.12. January 100% wood stove at $0.12kw/hr was $250. No oil consumption and I aggressively change my electrical supplier. Tired of spoon feeding Eversource CEO’s! Anyone who doesn’t change their supplier is just a big dope lol.

7 panels through Trinity Solar. The whole system I think was somewhere around 17k. It's gonna be 42.98 for 300 months (25 years), but given the 3600 I put down I should pay it off long before then. The system was actually installed 1 year ago today.

I supposed although my last electric bill was 133+ the 97 I suppose it could be a lot worse I got some phone calls to make in a couple hours I think I’m gonna try and get a cheaper price instead of the 24cents Eversource is charging.

Swede577 t1_j9eloz0 wrote

I only pay the monthly $9.62 connection charge year round. I installed solar panels 8 years ago and converted my house to all electric. Heat pump water heater, heat pumps for ac/heat, induction stove, heat pump dryer, etc.

According to my energy monitor my 1800 sqft house used 8500 kwh for all of 2022 or about 700 kwh a month. My heat pumps consumed 2500 kwh of that electricty for heating/cooling.

Where was everyone 8 years ago when panels were $1.50 a watt to install? The prices now are like $3.50+ watt. The net metering was also way better than the current one they changed to last Jan. The state was offering massive upfront cash incentives as well. The payback period was like 5.5 years. I was the only house in my neighborhood for years with panels.

2 people, 2 story beach house, 2,200 sq ft.

Solar panels $144 UI bill $480 Gas $112

I’m in a weird situation, the solar company I went with (posigen) I don’t recommend, said that our output would cover out electric bill. According to their company, our panels are producing the numbers they say, but according to UI, they argue not. They keep pointing the finger at each other. It sucks.

$384. Oil heat, 2 people, a solar array, and 1200 sq feet. I have no idea how it’s so goddamn high, there’s a nonzero chance the well pump never kicks off and needs replacing.

I see so many people explaining how solar helped them in January, if I generated 15 kW a day in January that was a great day. Things are already starting to turn around and production is moving towards enough to cover a whole days worth of consumption but man, November to January are sad production months for me.

That seems high for a heat pump. Have you done the energy audit? It really helped us. We were around $800 last year but have got it down to $650 even with the rate increases. Energy supplier change goes into effect on the 24th.

Lizzer1152 t1_j9hskvq wrote

1500 sq feet. Hot water heat / radiators. Both of these figures are from January. I did NOT lock in an oil price this year. Electric - $186 Oil - $670 for 140 gallons. Should not need another top off for a while with these mild temps. Though may use more heating on our second story with a newborn coming. But we’ll see how the spring temps play our.

Our supplier rate is going from $0.089 to $0.1389. We keep our thermostat set to 62 in the winter & 82 in the summer. We use about 787 kwh/month.
On average our bill will go up from $185/month to $230 or so.

Hopefully by year’s end we’ll have solar and do geothermal next year.

$215 averaged between the last two months, family of 3. Wood pellet stove mostly but electric heat in the bedrooms. I locked in awhile ago with a supplier at 8.99 cents/kwh until December 2024, really lucked out. Would've been an extra $130 (!!!) with Eversource's rate.
