Not all locations have a flat rate utility rate. Most of California, for example, is on a tiered rate structure. For the fist 100% of baseline each month the rate is .12, for the 101% - 300% the rate is .25 for everything above 301% the rate is .37. The baseline is just a few hundred KWH. In the 5 years we have lived in our current house (even before installing our tank) we always hit the 3rd tier each month. The utility rates should be listed on your electrical bill (I thought that was a Federal regulatory law these days, but I could be mistaken ?)
