Are You on the Right Rate?

Exploring our rate options could save you money this summer

Summer is here, and soon your electric bill will reflect it. Now is the time to take a closer look at not just how much electricity you use, but how you use it, so you can be on the rate that keeps more money in your pocket.

Standard Residential Rate

The Standard Residential Rate is perfect for members who like simplicity and convenience and who use an average of 1,600 or more kilowatt hours (kWhs) per month. On this rate, all kWhs cost 9¢ year-round, with a break in the winter. Energy use greater than 1,000 kWhs is billed at 6¢ per kWh on January, February, March, April, May, November and December bills.

It’s a more complex rate design, but energy-conscious members are able to take full advantage to see savings. Energy used between 3 and 7 p.m. on weekdays from June 1 through Aug. 31 (excluding July 4) costs 24¢ per kWh. All other kWhs are billed at 11¢ per kWh on June bills and 9.8688¢ on July, August and September bills. Kilowatt-hour costs range from 6¢ to 9.2752¢ per kWh on winter bills.

This simple year-round rate offers 9¢ per kWh between 5 a.m. and 9 p.m., and 5¢ per kWh between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. Anyone able to shift energy use during those overnight hours should see savings.
