Cost is perfectly valid as a basis of comparison, but electricity varies from 5 cents to 40 cents depending on where you are. Some states offer special night rates, some don't.

All of this depends a lot on government involvement, including the public utility regulators of each state. Throw in federal energy policy and the whole thing gets a bit uncertain.
