    They think that because of how the bills are charged. Every electric utility fee on my bill is per usage. If they had a base ‘admin / maintenance’ cost based development size / type and then usage fee on top I think people would not think it so much.

      my utility does bill admin fees monthly. I pay them about $8 per month to be on the grid even though my net usage is negative.
