Gas Price Info With National Gas Temperature Map

Too bad you can't shop for electricity like you can shop for petroleum fuel.
Probably got more choices for charging stations along the most traveled routes than I do for gasoline. Pretty much just QT, Kum N Go or Murphy's around here with the occasional Caseys or a couple of independents that are still in business.

EA just opened 16 new stalls at 2 stations in town. Tesla opened a new 26 stall Supercharger on the west side and is upgrading the existing 8 stall on the east side. Plenty of crappy Francis Energy stations around too
 
My question wasn't about availability but being able to get a reasonable price. I get a charge out of Tesla pricing by the minute rather than the kWh.

Fortunately for those in my area (the Pacific Northwet), we have relatively cheap hydroelectric power but other areas aren't so fortunate.
 
While out running some errands, I saw Murphy’s is down to $2.39 this afternoon.

Our electricity is pretty cheap, mix of hydro, wind and natural gas. I’m just charging at home and that will be 99% of my charging. Costs me .08 cents /kWh for home charging unless I switch to a TOU program which would be .02 /kWh off peak to charge at home.

3 cent State tax on DCFC. No idea what the dcfc pricing will be around the State. Quarter of the state is aep/pso, quarter is ok gas and elec (OGE), the rest is combination of municipal and co-ops. They are all regulated by the corporation commission for consumer service, but not sure if there is any regulation for commercial services.

Looks like the 4 EA stations in and within 50 miles of the Tulsa metro are .56 cents per kWh. The Francis Energy chargers at the Ford dealership a couple miles from me are .59 cents per kWh for DCFC and .39/kWh for level 2😳.

I’ll primary use the EA near our lake property if I need to DCFC as that’s about the only extended driving I do anymore. I say that and karma will rear it ugly head and I’ll suddenly have to go to OKC or something. Which I still have my Yukon currently should I need to go somewhere where charging might be iffy.
 
Which one?

Forgot to mention that I paid $2.85 a couple of days ago in northern VA.
2024 Kia EV9 Light Long Range in Pebble Grey. Loving it. So far I've done a little over 200 miles in it this week.. Amazing the amount of energy put back in the battery from regenerative braking. Drove my Yukon this morning on a couple of errands and took a sec to relearn braking on it after using one peddle on the Kia.
