Chapter 2, Problem 32E
The Tilting Windmill Electrical Cooperative LLC Inc. has instituted a differential pricing scheme aimed at encouraging customers to conserve electricity use during daylight hours, when local business demand is at its highest. If the price per kilowatthour is $0.033 between the hours of 9 p.m. and 6 a.m., and $0.057 for all other times, how much does it cost to run a 2.5 kW portable heater continuously for 30 days?
