My power company likes to brag that they have the cheapest rates in the area at eleven cents per kilowatt. But if I don't write a check for 15 cents per kilowatt they will shut my power off.
Add on fees are clearly an advertising misinformation gimmick.
Yeah, less than 50% of my electric bill is for the actual electricity used, the rest is for "delivery charges" and other vaguely defined fees. I don't know if those fees are fixed or are based on usage...we don't use a lot of electricity, even with all the fees and New England's high electric rates the bill is still under $50/mo, often $40 or less in the summer/fall.
