Kilowatt-hour Pricing

Kilowatt-hour pricing is the way electricity providers charge for energy usage. A kilowatt-hour (kWh) measures the amount of electricity used over time—think of it as consuming one thousand watts for one hour. Your electricity bill reflects how many kWh you've used during a billing period multiplied by the rate per kWh set by your provider. This rate can vary based on factors like time of day, total consumption, or market conditions. Essentially, you're paying for the amount of electricity you consume, which helps cover the costs of generating and delivering power to your home.
