[quote=Anonymous]Is electricity really that expensive in our area? This federal government chart has it at about the national median: https://www.eia.gov/electricity/monthly/epm_table_grapher.php?t=epmt_5_6_a Regardless, I pay about 20 cents per kWh for electricity in D.C. (we pay higher than the Pepco rate, since we have an alternative provider that buys wind offsets for all our use). I think I'm actually rounding up a bit, now that I look at my latest electric bill. But my car battery can hold 82 kWh. That means charging it from completely empty to completely full costs $16. $16 buys you 4.5 gallons of gas at the station GasBuddy says is currently the cheapest price in D.C., at $3.55/gallon. So, that's how it compares. [/quote]
