The gap between this utility's cheapest and most expensive residential tariff is
$1,766
a year for a household using 1,000 kWh a month. Tariffs are not always open to
everyone — some require electric heating, a demand meter or program enrollment — so check
eligibility with the utility before switching.
New York State Elec & Gas Corp reports 10,935
residential solar installations to the EIA, totalling
90.608 MW. That means exported power is likely to earn
something here, though what an exported kWh is worth depends on state rules rather than
on the tariff in most cases.
For reference, New York State Elec & Gas Corp collected an average of $0.1775
per kWh from residential customers in the most recent EIA survey, across all its tariffs
and all usage levels. A single tariff priced at 1,000 kWh a month will differ from that
blended figure.
