It really pisses me off in Texas that there is no incentive to save energy. In the winter months, we average about 900kw per month. If we increase our usage by 11% to over 1000kw, our rate goes down about 15% and the service fee goes down in half, from around $10 to $5.

I should get near my meter on the last day of the month and turn on every appliance and light to bump me over the edge. What a stupid concept.

I hope SRP isn't publicly traded, raising rates for the shareholders.
