Only the fixed portion is. So about $20 of my $400-800 monthly electric bill is income-based. | ||

Not really. There is a standard rate and then the companies are required by the state to offer an opt in low income tier. There was a push a year or two back to make it fully income based, where you would have to give the power company your w2 to determine your rate, but it was rejected (for now) | ||
