kWh Index

Southern California Edison Co

Southern California Edison Co is investor owned serving 3,219,520 residential customers in California, at an average residential price of 32.43¢ 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 California right now, see the state page, currently 34.74¢.

What it reported, by service

ServiceResidential customersResidentialCommercial

Delivery1,374,89517.90¢11.30¢

A utility can file bundled service and delivery-only service separately. A delivery-only price excludes the energy itself, so the two are not comparable and are not ranked against each other.

How often the power goes out

The headline figure includes major event days, because a customer who lost power for three days in a storm lost power for three days. See how this compares nationally.
