I live on the big island and pay over $.40/KWH so a $700 bill would be more like $200 on the mainland.
That is one reason why my new house is off grid solar - cheap (compared to $.40/KWH), clean electricity.
The other is that the grid here is unreliable. I had 87 outage events last year for a total of 37 hours and that is not including the nine days with out power post hurricane.
