I have a Model 3 Performance, and a Maxwell ePro. Almost never do I have to pay any power bills, as my Solar overproduces, (In fact I get a check back at true-up). The Maxwell ePro also has its own 1.5kW solar system built-in, which is good for around 15 miles per/day if it's sunny.
Once in a while I will use CCS to charge the ePro, but my 2018 Model 3 was one of the very few sold that have free supercharging. (Though I think I had an idle fee once while eating.) I get about 250-350Wh/mile on the Model 3 and 400-500Wh/mile on the ePro.
