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 | 17.3¢ | 17.3¢ | $86.45 | $1,037.40 |
| 1,000 kWh a month | 16.8¢ | 16.8¢ | $167.95 | $2,015.40 |
| 2,000 kWh a month | 16.5¢ | 16.6¢ | $330.95 | $3,971.40 |
What is actually in this plan
The fine print, in plain English
- Base charge
- $4.95 every month before you use any electricity at all. Over a year that is $59.40.
- Energy charge
- 16.300¢ per kilowatt hour, the same at any usage.
- Bill credits
- None. Nothing to qualify for and nothing to lose.
- Minimum usage fee
- None.
- TNMP delivery charges
- Included in the energy charge above. TNMP still charges roughly $8 a month plus 6.4300¢ per kWh; the retailer has folded it in rather than billing it separately.
- Early termination fee
- $20 if you leave before the end of the 36-month term. Worth comparing against what you would save by switching.
