Angry Duke electric bill, help I don't understand!

1000 sq ft, I use about 900 kW/mo. A/C 3.5 tons 3 years old. Bill was around 90 bucks per month. BUT now Duke adds on fuel charges and the bill goes to over $200.00 per month.

A year and a half ago this all changed. For the pervious 4 years my electric bill was around $ 100 per month. Anyone else seeing this?

Last month base bill was $ 91.00 after fuels charges bill went to $ 202.00

Yup, we love SECO (and more importantly the Florida utility regulators). We typically use a little bit more kilowatt hours per month in our Villages home than our Massachusetts home, but our SECO bill runs about half of our Eversource bill up north. You know that when you’re paying less than 50% per kilowatt hour versus another state that Florida is doing something good.

Take it and be happy don’t broadcast it.
It just encourages the companies to raise fees because people say they are cheap. Duh

$150, 2200 sq ft, 77 degrees inside, 22 year old AC. SECO by the wisdom of their new smart meter says only $60 is for cooling. “Always On” accounts for 30, and that I don’t understand. One Tivo, one TV, one antenna amplifier, a couple of laptop chargers, and a computer, modem and router are all that could be “Always On”. None are high wattage devices.
