Benton Rural Electric Assn
Benton Rural Electric Assn is cooperative serving 13,422 residential customers in Washington, at an average residential price of 9.27¢ per kilowatt-hour.
That price is derived, and it is annual. It is total residential revenue divided by total residential sales in EIA’s 2024 survey — not a tariff, and not this month’s rate. For what a kilowatt-hour costs in Washington right now, see the state page, currently 14.91¢.
