That's true, but I'll tell you first-hand how those fixed charges really suck. We have a farm with electric service. Just a machine shed with lights, an air compressor, and other power tools. We normally use less than 10kWh per month. Our fixed charge is $38.00. All in all, we end up paying about $4.00 for each kWh used!There are two ways to view that $25/mo. flat service fee:
1) That's the cost of having electrical service to your home. You will pay that whether you drive a gasoline car or an electric car so it shouldn't be included in your car expenses.
2) The more electricity your car uses, the cheaper the electricity per kW becomes!
