In my area of California, we have off peak hours from 9pm to 10am M-F. Weekends, off-peak more of the 2 days except for a part of the afternoon. On peak hours are M-F from 1pm to 7pm, until winter time. Rates in my area are as follows: $0.1323/kwhr Off Peak, $0.153/kwhr Partial Peak and $0.3125/kwhr On Peak....

Wow, you must not be making much mining after electricity cost, if anything at all.

I'm currently paying $0.03/kwh for power and $0.04kwhr delivery. Thats $0.07/kwhr total no peak/off peak and I'm locked in for the next 6 months. That sounds great but half of my mining profits still go toward power, more than half if I'm running them in air conditioning.

I've been told that I have some of the cheapest power in the country, if that's the case, how does everyone else stay above power cost mining?

That sounds like rates in Washington state, but what state do you live in for those rates. I make a profit, just have to be very careful on the hours usage and what I mine. I'm just running two rigs, nothing too wild.
