Hello there, I have a charger installed inside a shared parking garage at my loft, and am currently in casual negotiations with my HOA about the rate I will be paying for my usage. Georgia power currently advertises something around $0.06/kWh for residential, off-peak usage. However, after taxes and fees (some of which are usage-based), that rate goes up to somewhere near $0.12/kWh.
Currently, the assumption is that I'll be paying the after-tax, after-fees rate of $0.12, and I have no argument so far with that, since it seems like my usage will cost them that much. Does anyone have more experience with utility rates, and can chime in on whether this seems logical? I am making a call to my power utility tomorrow to at least ask, "What should I pay?" If I can gather any other important questions, I'd like to get those in as well. Maybe something like this would affect the situation: "Do the usage-based fees tail off after certain, high amount of usage?"
My hope is to get a more-official answer from the utility about how my HOA should go about charging me for usage, and any questions I can muster to get me there would be appreciated!
