Residential Solar Savings

What this tariff charges

Energy rates

The charged price is the base rate plus its adjustment. Adjustments carry fuel and rider costs and are frequently most of the bill, so a comparison built on the base rate alone is meaningless.

Energy charge

What it costs at different usage levels

Effective rate includes the fixed charge, which is why it falls as usage rises.
