That is the gap between the cheapest plan you could be on — Rate 18- Controlled Water Heating Electric Service — and the priciest. Not by using less power. By being billed differently for the same power.

| Rate 18- Controlled Water Heating Electric ServiceOne rate, every hour of the year. | $1,902 | — |

An estimate, not a quote. Supply charges move month to month, and your real usage pattern is not exactly this one. What it does show reliably is the gap between plans — both are priced off the same assumptions.
