Utility Bill DecoderWhy your Florida power bill went up — and what you qualify for
Florida

Why is the bill $60 higher?

Florida power bills move for two reasons — you used more, or the rate changed — and the bill is designed so you can't tell which. Paste it. Utility Bill Decoder separates usage from rates, names the charge that moved, and lists the programmes that cut it.

Why this exists

Usage or rates? The bill won't say. We will.

An August bill in Florida can be $60 higher than July's for the most boring reason — 31 days of 94°F. Or the fuel charge changed, or a storm-recovery line appeared. Knowing which tells you whether to adjust the thermostat, call about a rate, or apply for help.

How it works

Separate. Name. Fix.

Do the one thing that helps

Budget billing, a usage check, the utility's own assistance fund, LIHEAP — with the call script on a paid plan.
