What Watts Cost

Another fun chart from Steve Hayward of Power Line. This one looks at cost per kilowatt hour of electricity. The bars below are color-coded to compare US states (orange) with other countries (blue). 

When the DrsC moved our winter place from CA to NV we cut our energy cost nearly in half, dropping from 29.1 cents to 16.2 cents per kWh. Not to mention we do all heating (except cooking) in NV with natural gas. Our WY summer place is all electric, but the average cost here is only 12.1 cents per kWh.
