The results showed that from 2012 to 2016, the annual total power and total electricity cost increased year by year. The higher the electricity consumption was, the lower the factor adjusted power price was. The an- nual factor adjusted power price decreased from 532.5 yuan (above the national standard) to -599.78 yuan (below the national standard). The electricity consumption was always highest in June. The more the rainfall from June to September was, the less the monthly electricity usage was. The collect electricity charge to total electricity charge ratio was 1.26%-1.34%, the directory electricity charge to total electricity charge ratio was 96.34%-99.80%, and the electricity loss of transformer was 288-496 kW/h.展开更多
