    Energy company doesn't care unless they think you are stealing the energy. Like they don't want more money.

    Well, in California a busy place like los angeles residential Edison rates are the worst
    they are structured on tear levels (5 total) you start with a base (which is ridiculous),
    then for each tier that you consume....the rate gets higher. And that ac unit how much
    is that going to consume....220v@25 amps+ (more $). I would recommend a warehouse
    with live in quarters where a commercial rate is "flat". Example: Commercial flat
    rate .11 to .16 cents, Residential tier 5 rate .33+ cents (Yikes!) Next time you go
    shopping at the hydro store get a catalog (usually are free) most have a section on
    calculating electrical usage and find out what the rates are for your area. A solar
    powered (grid tie) home or business will help supplement usage.

    spikes are meaningless to consumption but matter to the circuit breaker only, they have smart meters but the can't tewll whats on, pay ya bill on time and be a good neighbor. I had a warehouse in LA for years and smell control is where you should concern yourself, imo.

    I would think that ita not a big deal because your in cali and legal. If you were somewhere its not legal than i would be worried.
    Hello. I like pot.
