I don't know much about pellet stoves but they need electricity to run? If so does it erase any gain from heating with it vs oil, natural gas or propane?

Point being, I've seen considerable savings from shutting off my electric heat and burning pellets. More than I even anticipated.

Oh, I understood your point. What is your electrical rate there it currently works out to $0.151 / kWh here and my electrical usage was 466 kWh on the February 2012 bill.

Then they tax me 4% on everything. Honestly, I don't know how they get away with it. Renewable energy charge? Seriously? WTF is that? With all these additional charges they are charging me about .15 per kwh. I do my best to be "energy wise" but i am alone on an island in this house, with all the lights, tv's, showers, baths, washer/dryer, etc..... In my world, I'll take a $200 utility bill. 1/2 a days work as I look at it.... The bills used to be as high as a lot of peoples Mortgages.......
