- Residential Electricity Rates:
- The average residential electricity rate in California is approximately 34.31 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh), which is 108% higher than the national average.
- On average, California residents spend about $327 per month on electricity, which adds up to $3,924 per year. This is 45% higher than the national average electric bill of $2,701.
- Commercial Electricity Rates:
- The average commercial electricity rate in California is around 23.79 cents per kWh, which is 90% higher than the national average.
- For the 12 months ending in May 2022, the average commercial price in California was 19.94 cents/kWh, significantly higher than the US average of 10.77 cents/kWh for all states other than California.
Electricity costs in California are 90-95% higher than the national average because of the policies Newsom is so proud of. What a disaster.
