Why some US electric utilities are experimenting with flat-rate pricing
Hmm...that Duke Energy is attempting this is an interesting sign. This feels like a paradigm shift in utility billing that could end up working. The online subscription model has shown that people just like consistency. You don't hear many people wanting an Amazon or Netflix subscription priced on use per month. They just want to know what they're paying. I think this could be true with electricity, though introducing it may receive some pushback I think it's worth a shot.

A flat monthly rate makes life easier for customers and could help utilities reduce their carbon footprint.
