Loving how my power bill is 300$ this month, Central Maine Power (aka rob me blind corp) is claiming I'm averaging 40kwh a day for this billing cycle. This time last year I was averaging 18kwh a day for the billing cycle.
Last year I worked from home, with a work laptop that used more power and had 2 ACs running.
This year I still work from home, have a newer laptop that uses less energy, and only have 1 AC running.
The math doesn't add up.
Additionally this bill would be even higher if I actually was using the standard offer for electrical generation negotiated by the public utilities commission. Fortunately Maine has competitive offers (although most of them are worse then the standard offer). I lucked out and saved like a penny and a half on electrical generation.
All in I'm paying 0.192 per kwh generated and delivered to my house

Harris I've been trying to figure out my freaking cmp bill forever!
My electric delivery charge is higher than my supply standard offer this month. I have no idea what any of it means.
I almost fainted when I opened a bill last Jan only to have someone at cmp tell me it must be my Christmas lights. Very presumptuous of them.
@KazzyH I should call them and see what they say 🤣🤣🤣 "oh it must be your AC unit". You mean the device that is plugged into a kill-o-watt meter, with the correct kwh cost in it, that is reporting my AC is responsible for 32 dollars and some change to my bill for the month? That certainly doesn't explain the increase between June's bill of 207 (how apt) and this months pending usage... Considering that same AC unit was sitting in the window, with that same kilowatt meter attached.
