Americans' monthly electricity bills may average $173 this summer compared to $168 last summer, with increased air conditioning use driving the cost up, partly offset by lower residential electricity prices.
Residents in Southern states use the most electricity in the summer due to heat and humidity, while the Pacific Coast faces a potential 7% increase in retail electricity prices driven by heat and drought-induced hydroelectricity shortfall.
