“I assume that the $116 is a typo!”

California has set up rate schedules that determines the electricity a household should use. When I lived in California in Bakersfield, a hot region, I tried very hard to keep usage to a minimum but was still charged .46 cents / kwh for most of the usage.

Where I am going with this is in California charging a car at home will definitely push the home owner into the higher rates, probably more that .46 / kwh now. Otherwise factor kn also buying a solar installation.

Bakersfield has an electric vehicle plan at 22 cents per kwh.

Yep.

I have a higher amp service in my home (the previous owner had a welding hook up in the garage). I pay more than my neighbor if I exceed a set amount.

If you have a charging station, the electric company will talk to you about changing the rates.
