It's been absolutely fascinating to follow the electricity rates across IOS-NY and ISO-NE over the past few weeks.
Let's see how that data is being reflected at Choose Energy: average residential electricity rate in the US is 13.83 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh).
These are the latest figures available, from February, 2022, and the change in percent is from one year ago, February, 2021.
So, again, US average: 13.83 cents /kWh: up 3.6% from a year ago.
Of the 50 states, only one state had a rate less than 10 cents/kWh: North Dakota.
The most expensive is an outlier:
- Hawaii: a basket case; 38.15 cents; up a whopping 17.95 from last year
The rest:
