Interestingly, in July 2019 - it was time. Hard to imagine that NC changed the law between then and now but maybe. I am not sure that I supercharged between July 2019 and July 2021 so not sure when the change happened.In 7/2021 - the net charge was 27 cents a kwh.In 9/2021 - it was up to 32 cents a kwh.Note - same supercharger. We live (as most do) in a land of a single regulated monopoly electric carrier. My home rate nets about 11.5 cents and there is no TOU or demand charges. And no recent changes either. Certainly, commercial sites have demand charges and probably TOU. If someone plans to live on supercharging, they are using a monopoly that can raise rates 20% whenever they feel like it. That is the most transparent answer. Also, if someone chooses to do that, they are going to pay more than gas in many markets. If it isn't more, it certainly isn't a signficant savings. It is close to parity.</blockquote>
