Hawaii has 6th worst economy in the Nation

[JerryCarr]

Marcia, the last time I checked it was something like 33 cents per kWh. Someone correct me if that's out of date, please. As far as what your biggest load factor might be, that would depend on you lifestyle and household equipment. Hot water is frequently mentioned as a biggie, but there are several arrangements available to reduce that such as solar, timers, and on-demand systems. I understand it is cheaper to cook with propane, but most homes seem to have electric cookers. We bake a LOT, so our bill is higher than average.

We seem to be going off topic here. Sorry. The electric rate situation is just one of many economic disadvantages in Hawaii.

Cheers,
Jerry
