Is 10.9 cents/kwh a good electricity rate?

Asked by La_chica_gomela (9045points) | asked 1 month ago | 4 responses | “Great Question” (0points) | Flag as…

I’m setting up electricity by myself for the first time. A roommate or apartment manager always took care of everything for me in the past. I’m SO CONFUSED about all the options in de-regulated Houston BLEGH. Is that a good rate with no monthly fees? It’s a fixed rate for almost the exact term I plan to live in this unit.

Good for you for asking this question and investigating your various rate options. That rate sounds like it is in the ballpark but I am not certain. It just so happens, I too, have a utility quandary to investigate and that is why my two month water and power bill exceeds $1000 for the first time in my life while our consumption of both electricity and water were markedly reduced from last year. I wish us both luck. See ya….Gary/wtf
PS: I’m hoping mine is as simple as finding this is the month they tack on the annual fee for trash collection, but thought that was done during a winter month, in the past.

@whatthefluther: that’s a lot of money! I hope they made a mistake!

I live in Houston and that seems like a decent rate. Go to Texas’ Electric Choice’s site at http://www.powertochoose.org to compare, though!

ps – deregulation is such a joke! I want regulated service back!!
