How the 16.34c figure is calculated

16.34c/kWh = $136,142k revenue / 833,392 MWh x 100. This is EIA's average realised price for 2024: everything Turlock Irrigation District billed its residential customers (energy, delivery, fuel and rider charges, fixed charges) divided by the kilowatt-hours it sold. It is not a tariff rate, and a 2024 annual average will differ from a current bill. For a 1,000 kWh month at this average, the energy cost works out to about $163 before taxes.

About Turlock Irrigation District's 2024 electricity prices

Turlock Irrigation District is a public power district or political-subdivision electric utility that reports to the U.S. Energy Information Administration under utility number 19281. In 2024 it served 80,575 bundled residential customers in California, and its average realised residential price was 16.34 cents per kWh: $136 million of residential revenue divided by 833,392 MWh of residential sales.

Across the other sectors, Turlock Irrigation District's 2024 average prices were 13.56 cents for commercial customers (8,945 accounts) and 12.73 cents for industrial customers (6,226 accounts). Industrial customers paid 3.61 cents less per kWh than households, a 22% discount that is typical of high-volume, high-voltage service.

Within California, Turlock Irrigation District ranked number 10 of 35 utilities with bundled or delivery service by residential accounts served (80,575) and accounted for 0.97% of the state's residential electricity sales in 2024, measured in MWh sold or delivered rather than in customers. The state-wide average realised residential price in 2024, computed from the same EIA file, was 31.97 cents per kWh, so Turlock Irrigation District's customers paid 15.63 cents below the California average (-48.9%).

Source and method

Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Form EIA-861 Annual, 2024 final data (public domain), retrieved 28 August 2026; prices are average realised revenue per kWh, not tariffs. Final 2024 file f8612024.zip (released 3 December 2025) from the EIA-861 detailed data files. Preliminary 2025 figures come from the early-release file f8612025er.zip (4 August 2026), which EIA has not yet validated; they are labelled as such wherever shown and never mixed into a final figure.

Method: cents per kWh = revenue (thousand dollars) divided by sales (megawatthours), times 100. Customer counts, sales and revenue are the utility's own annual survey responses by state and sector. Bundled = energy plus delivery from one utility; delivery-only = the wires charge for customers who buy energy from a competitive supplier; energy-only = a competitive supplier's energy charge without delivery. County lists come from the EIA-861 Service Territory file; territory centroids used for "nearby utilities" are unweighted means of Census 2023 county centroids.
