Our house burned 10/29. We have emergency housing in the form of a mobile home on our property. Everything is electric in it. Plus, whatever extra was used by the mitigation company. There's nothing to do to save. My family needs heat and hot water.

Your insurance company should pay for any extra power usage caused by your living situation and what the mitigation company used. Send your electric bill off to your adjuster.

I'm really sorry - that sounds like an awful situation. You're also using an obscene amount of electricity for a mobile home. I'm guessing it's mostly resistive heating and your home has no insulation. Inquire about a home energy assessment ASAP. They're really helpful and will tell you the best way to lower that bill (likely insulation). Especially if you're low income, the improvements are reduced cost or free!
