Re:Why Electric Cars Will Be Here Sooner Than You Think by jeffbush on Sunday August 28, 2016 @11:10PM (#12379765)
My electric bill went up by about $80 the first month I got my electric car. Computing the cost is a bit tricky because I have tiered billing and I'm hitting the next higher tier since I got the car. My electric company (PG&E) does have an time-of-use billing plan tailored for EV, but, by my computations it didn't help a lot because we use A/C during the day:

If you charge at night and aren't home during the day, and your electric company has an EV plan, this might help.
