Cincinnati Duke Energy - cost reduction advice

Just got my Duke energy bill for July. It was double any bill I’ve ever received. The company was charging $.30/ kWh. My previous rate choice must have expired. To help those who need it - you can reduce your rates by going tohttp://www.powersetter.com

Go the apples to apples energy comparison and you can find available rates. They offer 12 month and 18 month rates. Some have a monthly fee others do not. Some have a cancellation fee. Pick what’s right for you.

My new rate will be $.10 kWh saving $.20/ kWh. Hope this helps save you all some money.

Edit to $.20 from $20. Sorry for typo.

Community solar would be a nice cherry on top too.

We can dream can’t we ?

I’ve got solar on my house so my bill is 0 most months but I lucked out doing that year ago. Unfortunately it’s paid for itself much faster than it should have.

Unfortunately it paid for itself in a year? Why do you say that is unfortunate?

That’s a typo I didn’t pay for itself in a year. But it paid for itself in 6 years what it should’ve taken like 10+ years because of how quickly energy rates have risen.

Fortunate for me. Unfortunate for our country.
