How the two plans work
RS-1: Residential Service
- In July the first 1,000 kWh a month cost 12.3¢ each; then 14.3¢ above 1,000 kWh a month.
- An average Florida home (1,477 kWh in July) goes past the first tier, so extra load such as an EV is priced higher.
- Fixed charge: $10.52 a month.
- Minimum bill: $30.00 a month.
RTR-1: Residential Time-of-Use
- Peak noon–9 pm on July weekdays; 9 of 24 hours carry the top price of 28.9¢.
- The cheapest July weekday hour costs 8.0¢, so moving 1 kWh out of the top hours saves 20.9¢.
- January weekdays range from 6.0¢ to 26.9¢.
- Summer pricing applies Apr–Oct; winter pricing Nov–Mar.
- Weekends follow a different schedule from weekdays.
- Fixed charge: $10.52 a month.
- Minimum bill: $30.00 a month.
