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 | 13.2¢ | 13.1¢ | $65.70 | $788.40 |
| 1,000 kWh a month | 12.8¢ | 12.8¢ | $128.07 | $1,536.84 |
| 2,000 kWh a month | 12.7¢ | 12.6¢ | $252.82 | $3,033.84 |
What is actually in this plan

- Base charge

- Energy charge
- 6.690¢ per kilowatt hour, the same at any usage.
- Bill credits
- None. Nothing to qualify for and nothing to lose.
- Minimum usage fee

- AEP Central delivery charges
- $3.33 a month plus 5.7843¢ 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.
