If you live in a hydro state, electricity is even cheaper (I think 6 or 7 cpkwh).
With shopping and 6 month contracts (instead of 3 year), you can get 8.3 cpkwh right now.
Short contracts are cheap,
1-2 year are more expensive.
And 3 year are less expensive but more expensive than short term contracts.
To be honest, going to LED's is a much better payoff than solar power cells right now and will probably be for several more years. They all pay for themselves within 6 months. But you have to stick with the 3100k bulbs otherwise you get wierd shades of pink and orange or intense blue white (which will keep you up at night).
