The Part Most Homeowners Don't Realize: Inflation Compounds

Electricity costs don't just increase - they compound over time.

A 6% increase doesn't reset every year. Each year's increase is applied on top of the previous year's higher cost.

What does that mean in real numbers?
From 2017 to today (8-9 years):

A 6% annual compounded increase equals approximately:

  • ~59% higher costs over 8 years
  • ~69% higher costs over 9 years

In simple terms:
If your electricity bill was $100 in 2017, today you're paying roughly $160-$170 for the same amount of energy - before future increases.

And this does not include:
  • Seasonal demand surcharges
  • Storm recovery fees
  • Grid reliability riders
  • Additional delivery adjustments
Those costs are added on top.

Most homeowners feel the increase - but don't see a clear way out.

That's why we offer a no-cost home energy audit.

Why We Do Energy Audits

The goal of the energy audit is simple:

  • To show you exactly how much electricity your home has used over the last 24 months
  • To break down what you're paying in retail energy vs. delivery charges
  • To identify which option actually makes sense for your home - not guesses, not sales talk
Every home is different.
What works for one neighbor may not work for you.

The 3 Available Alternatives

Option 1: Switch to a Different Electricity Company

In some cases, switching providers can reduce your rate.

However:

  • Many plans come with early cancellation fees
  • You may already be on the best plan available for your usage
  • A cheaper rate does not eliminate delivery charges
We verify whether switching truly saves you money - before you make a move.

Option 2: Home Energy Efficiency Improvements

This includes:

  • HVAC system upgrades
  • Attic or window insulation
  • Smart thermostats
  • Energy-efficient appliances

While these can reduce usage by 20-30%, they usually require:
  • Thousands of dollars out of pocket
  • Or high-interest financing
For many homeowners, the return simply doesn't justify the upfront cost.
We help you evaluate this before spending money.

Option 3: Grid Independence Program (Limited Availability)

There is a third alternative available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Only 2 out of every 10 homes qualify.

Eligible homeowners can:

  • Reduce yearly energy costs by up to 60%
  • Protect themselves from future rate hikes
  • Gain backup power through battery storage
  • Without investing their own money
  • Without taking out a loan
  • Without upfront out-of-pocket costs
This program is limited by neighborhood capacity and home qualifications - not everyone qualifies.

That's why the audit comes first.
