I recently discovered a way to project my energy costs over the coming years using my utility’s approved rate increases. I decided to run the numbers for the next 20 years, and honestly, the results were a lot higher than I expected.

It’s surprising how even small annual increases can add up into a significant amount over time. Seeing the projection really made me think more about budgeting and how much these “hidden” increases can affect long-term costs.

I also realized it’s a useful way to compare energy providers or consider ways to save on electricity before these costs get out of hand. Has anyone else tried projecting their future electric costs? I’d love to hear if your results were as eye-opening as mine.
