I need solar at home. The solar on the boat paid for itself very quickly in 
saved gas. My mother has solar and over a year she was a net seller of 
electricity. Of course the power company buys at wholesale and sells at retail ☹

My elec bill approaches yours, but I have 34 solar panels on my roof.  No one I 
know has elec bill within the range cited by AI.

My house bill will likely be way past $500, $180 would be cheap!
 
The boat only has a battery charger and one heater set on low power and about 
50 degrees.

That sounds pretty balmy !! and low cost for electricity.

RI went green - going to depend on Solar & Wind. no coal, propane. and of 
course no nuclear !!!

Come join us in Rhode Island 

Fourth highest electricity cost in nation
Average Rate: Approximately 28–31 cents per kWh. For comparison, the national 
average is roughly 17.78 cents per kWh.
Average Monthly Bill: Residents pay an average of $160–$180 per month for 
electricity alone. 

Great sailing

The ice age is over! No day below freezing in the forecast😊
 
If I start my engine this will curse us and we’ll probably have icebergs☹
 
I am dreading my electric bill, Maryland very unwisely turned off our coal 
fired power plants now in anticipation of solar cells and wind generators going 
up in the future. My *boat* bill was $79 for power and $82 for transporting the 
power from Pennsylvania and other states and the next bill is likely to be 
higher.
