IGNORANCE IS BLISS!

But you are the genius so please show how they arrived at these numbers from your source.

“Now, how much does a family end up paying? Well, data from the UIEA tell us that the average U.S. household uses 687 kWh per month. If you multiply that by the average cost of 13.1, you arrive at an average of $116.69 per month. Does that sound familiar?

To dig deeper, the average abode in Hawaii, in 2016, not needing to run the heat a lot, maybe cooking with a grill on the patio, used just 505 kWh per month. That means that this family, with Hawaii’s high rates, would pay $168.67, much more than the national average, even though they’re conserving energy.”

You are not including base charges, taxes and fees paid by the user.

Plugging in an EV does not change that amount as the increment ID $/kwhr only.

Gasoline is more expensive, also.
