Newbie! PG&E costs

Newbie.. so new haven't even started set up yet but a lot has been running through my mind because I know a lot has be taken into consideration when growing. The one issue that has me stuck is PG&E costs. so lets say I use 3 400w bulbs, 3 ballasts, carbon filter, fan and all the other small electrical gadgets how much should that come out to in a PG&E bill? When talking to growers who are professional and newcomers they have always said that PG&E is what kills it. Some use CARE and it works for them but Im not into any type of government assisting for anything in my life (unless i have no financial option). Opinions on PG&E costs per month? How much should I expect?

I don't know, but imagine if you had to pay 25c kw/hr! (like me).

$200 + in my town for 1000w each +

My average light bill before growing $70 bux, My average light bill now $240 bux. 1- 1000w MH running 24 hours a day, 2- 1000w HPS running 12 hours a day each, various filters and fans and pumps. It is not free to play, lol.

Thanks! I live in California. I know PG&E costs vary by state and California is one of the more costly states. Some friends have told me that they pay PG&E any where from $1000-1500. I was afraid that i would be looking at a bill that high.
