Energy Suppliers and Time of Day

Anyone using an ESCO (Energy Supply Co) for Gas or Electric?

I signed up for one a while back for both gas and electric and it is really impossible to tell if you get any savings. At one point there was no tax, but looking over my bill that seems to have changed.

My latest electric supply bill I paid $12.4335/kWh plus 4% tax. Can anyone tell me how does that compare with the straight ConEd rate? (This is EL1 residential service)

Also, does anyone have experience with the ConEd’s voluntary time of day pricing?

From what I know about how energy supply and demand works it definitely seems like time of day pricing is the future. But there is very very little info on the ConEd site about what to expect if you sign up. Anyone tried it?
