How to Calculate a Bill
Rate R-1 (Residential)
Start with your kilowatt-hours of monthly use.
For sake of example, say you use 750 kilowatt-hours.
Multiply your usage by the
Distribution Energy Charge
(0.04 per kilowatt-hour).
In our example, this is 750 kilowatt-hours, multiplied by 0.04 per kilowatt-hour used, for a total of $30.
Add the
Customer Charge
(includes energy conservation charge of .30) of $5.30.
In our example, this is now a subtotal of $35.30.
Add the
Purchased Power Charge
of $0.0930 per kilowatt-hour.
In our example, this is 750 kilowatt-hours multiplied by $.0930 for an additional $69.75. This brings the subtotal to $105.05.
Add the
Purchased Power Adjustment
of $0.015 per kilowatt-hour. This will not appear on the bill when zero.
In our example, this is 750 kilowatt-hours multiplied by $0.015 for an additional $11.25. This brings the subtotal to $116.30.
Subtract the
PASNY Credit
on the first 500 kilowatt-hours, with $0.005 per kilowatt-hour.
In our example, this is 500 kilowatt-hours multiplied by $0.005 for a subtraction of $2.50. This brings the subtotal to $113.80.
Lastly, subtract the
Prompt Payment Discount
of $5.30.
In our example, this is $113.80 minus $5.30, for a
total (net) bill of $108.50
.
