kWh Index

Upper Peninsula Power Company

Upper Peninsula Power Company is investor owned serving 47,660 residential customers in Michigan, at an average residential price of 27.64¢ 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 Michigan right now, see the state page, currently 22.99¢.

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.
