yep, $475 a year just to have the electricity connected. The impact of time of use pricing is interesting too - I save a few hundred dollars a year by having time of use instead of a flat rate. One with demand pricing - time of use, plus more expensive over summer - was also a close one. I might revisit the idea after summer, it could be worth changing to it for winter but if we have a hot summer and I use more air conditioning it would be expensive.
