The published comparison points
Checking our arithmetic against theirs
Power to Choose makes every retailer publish an average price at exactly 500, 1,000 and 2,000 kilowatt hours a month. Those are the three numbers we recompute from the fact label; when ours land on theirs we know we have read the label correctly. They assume flat usage every month, which is why they differ from the seasonal figures above.
| Usage | They advertise | We compute | Monthly bill | A year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 kWh a month | 12.3¢ | 12.3¢ | $61.64 | $739.68 |
| 1,000 kWh a month | 12.0¢ | 12.0¢ | $120.28 | $1,443.36 |
| 2,000 kWh a month | 11.9¢ | 11.9¢ | $237.56 | $2,850.72 |
What is actually in this plan
The fine print, in plain English
- Base charge
- None. You pay only for what you use, plus your utility’s delivery charges.
- Energy charge
- 5.298¢ per kilowatt hour, the same at any usage.
- Bill credits
- $5 off your bill every month and only while you keep staying on autopay and paperless billing.
- Minimum usage fee
- None.
- TNMP delivery charges
- $8 a month plus 6.4300¢ per kilowatt hour, added on top. This is your utility’s charge for the poles and wires and is the same whichever retailer you choose.
- Early termination fee
- $20 if you leave before the end of the 6-month term. Worth comparing against what you would save by switching.
