In rural, southwestern Minnesota, mine is .0699. This seems quite inexpensive to me.

We're on the budget plan with WI Public Service, and our price per kwh from 8am-7pm is $0.20730, from 7pm-8am it's $0.05490. For weekends and holidays, the kwh price is the lower rate.

Ridiculous
I pay 0.20€/KwH which is more than 0.25$/KwH.
Our prices are partially so high because of taxes but mainly because the conservatives made us pay for building and running the nuclear power plants with enormous subsidies for the owners who never were able to run them at a competitive price.

Same here.
the .266 is just the cost of the power. Then we pay a delivery charge, a convenience fee $7.50 per month just to have the electricity on. Then there is a fuel adjustment when they shift from nuclear/coal/gas. Then we have franchise taxes, system maintenance fees yadda-yadda-yadda.
I have actually seen an electric bill (this months) that the cost of electricity was $10.80, but the total bill was $53.36.

We pay .112 in central Florida. Monthly summertime bill runs around $140 or so with the central A/C set to 75 degrees, winter time around $60. Gas bill holds steady at $25 - $30 year round at $1.30 or so per therm for the range, water heater and dryer.
Keven, your rates in Germany really aren't as bad as I thought they might be, considering it's probably more expensive to import fuels, and there are plenty of places in the states that are much more expensive. Do they have seasonal rates there that change during the year?

TVA Rules (when the don't jack up their FCA by 4x)!
From our electric provider:
MTEMC charges 7.726 cents per kilowatt-hour for each kilowatt-hour consumed. A basic monthly customer charge of $9.79 and a TVA Fuel Cost Adjustment (which is updated quarterly) is also factored into a residential bill. The current TVA Fuel Cost Adjustment is .843 cents per kilowat

National Grid charges us .1266 cents per KWH then they add .0266 for the distribution charge. Then add.00233 for the "transition charge. Add .01572 for the "Transmission charge. The add .0024999 for the "Dem side mgmt charge. Oh and lets not for forget the "Renewable Energy Charge. So lets add this up....
we used 647 kwh for Dec 23,2008 thru Jan 26,2009
647x .01266 Basic service fixed=$81.91
Customer charge is $6.21
Dist Charge is .0266x647 =17.21
Transition charge .00233x647=1.51
Transmission charge .01572x647=10.17
Dem side mgmt chg .0024999x647=1.62
Renewable energy charge .0005x647=.32
For a grand total of $118.95
Our bill usually runs about $90 a month and thats not with an Electric range or dryer. Painful yep it is. And we dont have "off peak" rates either.

Andrew,
The energy market here is deregulated and, as always when that happens, it's fubar.
I just happen to live in a city which has half-way decent prices.
We do have different rate structures for electric heating, etc. I pay a bit more because I support Ökostrominitiativen - environmentally friendly power generation.
No seasonal rates but I pay a fixed sum every month and always get a bit back at the end of the year.
I do know people who are rate-tourists, changing providers regularly to save money. Since the law requires your local provider to deliver power without interruption,it is possible to save money if you have the patience to do it.
Gas is a total disaster, completely incomprehensible.

We are currently paying 16 cents per Kwh. Next month we will be able to "renew" it at 11.5 cents per Kwh. This is what you get with electrical deregulation. I do NOT recommend it to anyone!
