Boomer, still not getting the math. It seems to make sense to try and get the on-peak as high as possible with solar. The cost difference of on-peak to super-off peak is much higher in Tier 2, so wouldn't it make sense to get into that Tier? I'm not doubting you but take a look at my usage percentages.
Right now my on-peak usage is -201% (that's negative), off-peak is 37% and super-off-peak 264%. As you can see, I am weighted heavily in on-peak as generation and super-off-peak in usage, so wouldn't it make most sense to get that on-peak rate as high as possible?
Also, I just checked the SCE webpage and it shows 60 cents as the summer peak, not the 70 cents and other rates you quoted. Is that some future rate hike?
I really can't believe how complex SCE makes all this. You need an engineering degree to figure out their bills. We are so far above the national average in $ per kwh it's not even funny. What happened? It seemed like this all started spiraling after the Enron debacle and Grey Davis signed us into some long-term contract.
