[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My solution is to keep my (too) big DC house uncomfortably warm in the summer. After that first $525 Pepco bill in July, I set the thermostat at 80 degrees during the day / 78 at night. I've said this before on these kinds of threads, but, those of us for whom a $500 pepco bill is a problem are not the people who can spend $30k on panels. If I could finance $1200/month for years to pay off the panels, I wouldn't be bitsching about a couple of $500 pepco bills, would I? [/quote] To help yourself and others, you need to be loud. First, call Pepco and say you can't afford your electricity. Then speak to every politician in DC telling them your electricity bill is too high. Unfortunately, we have a very pro-business, anti-person federal administration in office at the moment and probably nothing will change until the majority of Americans get too poor to afford to pay anything but speaking out is the first step. Pepco might give you a discount, you never know. [/quote]
