Now we are back down to the usual 10 or 11 KWH per month.īut because our bill shot up to 1104 KWH in March because of the leaking pressure tank, we have got to go through the 12 month calculus set out in Schedule G – approved by the West Virginia Public Service Commission - your tax dollars at work. And the well kept pumping and pumping water into the ground.Ī friend came over with his backhoe to dig up the tank and and our local plumber replaced the leaking tank with a new pressure tank. Well, as it turns out, there was a leak in our pressure tank. The capacity is defined as “the maximum number of kilowatt-hours used in the current month, or in any of the previous 12 months, divided by 120.”Įven though we usually use only 10 KWH or so on that well, in March our KWH shot up to a whopping 1104 KWH. 10205 per KWH set out in the first part of Schedule G.Īnd what exactly is the “capacity necessary to service the Customer”? $2.41 per kilowatt of capacity necessary to serve the Customer. Why door (b) and not door (a)? Potomac Edison won’t say. No you cannot have what’s behind door (a), Potomac Edison says. (b) $2.41 per kilowatt of capacity necessary to serve the Customer. The minimum bill per month shall not be less than: Which means our bill would be $1.12 for that month. In May 2021, we used 11 KWH on that well. We have such a well with it’s own meter and on an account separate from our house.Īnd for the electric use of that well, we fall under a rate program (Schedule G) that charges us.

Let’s say you have a well that uses 10 kilowatt hours (KWH) per month.
