It really depends on where you live in Vermont. In Burlington proper it's 10 cents for the first 100kw, and then 15 cents after that. Outside of the city, ~16 is often either the fixed rate, or tail block price. Many areas don't have any on or off-peak pricing.
A quick google search reveals Maine is paying ~14 cents, NY 15 cents, NH 17 cents and Mass 18 cents.
One bright spot, Burlington's grid is entirely from renewables, and Vermont has no fossil fuel power plants. I guess you have to pay for your electricity not to come from dirty coal. I'm very content with my 60-100mpg on $2.50 gasoline for the time being.
