> And in Austin, energy rates are 1/3 of that.

Are you saying electricity delivered to the home costs 3 cents/kWh in Austin? I flat out don't believe that. We're paying over 20 cents on Cape Cod. I can believe 10 cents in some areas. 3 cents, sorry; no.

As of December, the Austin Energy rates are 2.8c/kWh at the bottom tier, ranging up to 10.8c/kWh at the top.

Once you add all the extra fees and "one time charges" that happen every month, it's more but that's the base.
