It was more than 60%. The supply charge went from $.11/kwh to $.25/kwh. That's over 100% increase. We paid about $103 last month for our supply charge and this month it's $199. Plus, there's the distribution charge and transmission charge, which are all essentially the same thing, so we're paying about $260 this month just to get our electricity.

It’s based on last years winter numbers though not the month before. It always goes up during the winter months but it was 60% higher than last December.

That's still not a 60% increase from what people were paying. The word choice matters.
