On 5 december, a number of topics related to “electricity charges” became popular online, with multiple internet users indicating that their families had significantly higher electricity bills in december than usual. Why does december's electricity cost so much? Maybe it's about them。
Shanghai has raised the electricity bill
In recent days, a screen “has the cost of electricity increased in shanghai” has spread on internet platforms. The shanghai city development and reform commission has responded to this, and the information is false. At present, neither the state nor shanghai has adjusted the price of electricity for its inhabitants, and users of the shanghai market continue to implement the catalogue price promulgated in 2012。
Upon enquiry, in the current table of the cost of electricity to residents living in shanghai city, a table of users increased according to the steps, with the price of electricity in the first tranche being 0. 617 yuan per hour, with the price of electricity in the hour being 0. 617 yuan per hour, and the price of electricity in the valley being 0. 307 yuan per hour; the price of electricity in the second tranche being 0. 667 yuan per hour, with the price of electricity in the hour being 0. 677 yuan per hour and 0. 337 yuan per hour; and the price of electricity in the third tranche being 0. 917 yuan per hour, with the price of electricity in the hour being 0. 977 yuan per hour and 0. 487 yuan per hour. The data are completely different from what the screen says。
In addition, according to the state's internet-based electricity presentation, there is no adjustment to the cost of electricity for residents living in shanghai. The high cost of electricity to the population in december last year may well be due to the increase in electricity use at the end of the year, reaching the third stage, where the unit price of electricity is higher. In december 2022, shanghai experienced a number of steeper temperatures, especially at night, particularly cold temperatures, and increased use of electrical appliances such as air conditioning. At the same time, the fact that many shanghaiians are sunken this month, and that home rest and working hours are longer is also a major reason for the surge in electricity use, which may not be recognized by many。

The price difference between the first and second tranches is not significant. The third and first tranches cost $0. 3 per hour. Assuming that both households used 1,000 degrees of electricity in december, the third tranche billed around $300 more than the first。
Why is the electricity bill so expensive in december? Maybe it's about them
The high cost of electricity for some of the population in december may be related to these factors:
In december, the epidemic affected residents ' extended homes and increased electricity consumption
(c) the successive waves of cold, which have led to a significant increase in the consumption of thermal energy for air-conditioning at home
