Summer rates, $0.13668 tier 1
$0.13668 tier 2
$0.29742 tier 3 (130 - 200% of baseline)
$0.33742 tier 4 (over 200% of baseline)

+ $0.42 "customer charge" per day.

Baseline is about 12kWh per day (360 kWh per month) or in more simple terms a single refrigerator with freezer uses about 230kWh per month, so baseline is not much to work with.

I hear ya.  I managed to keep my monthly use to about 325KWh by living like a monk (this is with a wife and 3 kids who want to watch TV all the time).  Needless to say I'm not mining at home.

For Europeans who think they have it bad, check out these new rates for Southern California:

I moved into a brand new house in Germany which has 7.2kWp of nice black solar power on the roof.



During day, the house produces more energy than is needed for mining and everything else, the excessive power is sold to the national power grid.

During night, I pay €0.21 per kWh electricity. (Quite expensive)
wow nice, and how about in winter time

Success doesn't come to you…you go to it

Over the year, I will produce about 6340 kWh with that system (prediction calculation for my area and the size of the solar installation).

More in summer, less in winter of course.

I have no experience with rooftop solar houses, since this is my first house with solar installation. For now, I can't complain, I produced more electricity than I used so far.

I will have more info next spring how it is doing during winter.

AU$0.28kWh in Victoria, Australia

I offset the house / mining with a 1.5kWh solar panel system which cuts my elec bill by about 20~30% (20% in winter and 30% in summer)

I have acquired 3 * 400W UPS systems which I need to connect to a solar / turbine hybrid that I am currently sourcing parts for. Thesse will run independent of the grid so as not to loose solar feed in tariff of AU$0.66kWh.

and because of that the electricity is so expensive Smiley
in the end they cost more energy than they can produce in their lifetime (at that place). so long for green electricity.

I pay 0.32 USD, germany...  Undecided

I am not mining...

So much for the german myth of 'affordable, renewable, responsible energy policy'...  Undecided

They have 2 parts of the 3... which is better than some parts of the US with < 10 cents as they have not heard of the word responsible or renewable when it come to energy policy's  ... Tongue

0.35/kWh for Tier 4 which I get every month anyways. It averages to around 0.25kWh but that is still VERY expensive.  Cry

The bill SAYS 0.07 here in CT... but once you take in all the fees, and average that over a few bills... slightly under $0.16.
