Noobie question - I have tiered pricing from Austin Energy (i.e. not peak/off peak pricing) and the highest tier I’m ever in is $0.078 per k/w. If the battery capacity of my SR+ is 62 kwh would the cost to full charge from empty be 62 x $0.078? $4.84? Is it that simple? Obviously I would rarely charge from empty to full, and there is some dispute what the full capacity of the SR+ is, but that would mean most charges where I charge ~100 miles would be $2?
I ask for two reasons -
1) to reassure family/friends whom I’ll charge with over holiday visits that “don’t worry, it’s only a couple of bucks electricity I’m using”, and
2) Austin energy offer a $30 flat monthly fee for home EV charging, but since I don’t drive that many miles a month I’d be better off just paying as I charge.
Thanks!
