CT is not regulated. These prices are getting out of control. We have some of the highest prices.

Mine hasn't because we locked in a 3 year contract at 10.4c/kwhr..but prior to panicking about higher prices and locking that in, we were at 6.93c/kwhr...so its been an over 50% increase from there. Looking at the rates these days its almost more than double what it was in 2021.

The electric/heating bill for my 2bd/2ba apartment for November was way higher than I expected. It was about $400 higher than October and $225 higher than last November, but I've also been having some issues with the heater

Gas was $50 more. Electric was still in the $200 range this month.

I have oil heat so that's almost doubled from already exorbitant rates, but electric seems to have basically stayed the same.

My electric is the same because I switched companies. Oil is about double - $1100 so far. I’m glad it’s not too cold and my house is both energy efficient and small.

I stopped heating my apartment, so much less than last year 🥶

We largely stopped heating our condo. The dogs (pug and English bulldog) don't mind, and we wear sweatshirts and pants. At night, we have mattress heating pads and electric blankets- It's like heaven. The dogs snuggle right in and snore all night. Our little pug literally crawls under the blankets and you can just see his stupid face sticking out. I don't mind winter.

My electric with UI is actually $12 cheaper versus this time last year. Haven’t moved, haven’t made any changes in power usage. Gas is almost exactly the same. I guess I will consider myself lucky!

Roughly double even considering slightly less usage so far.
