ConEd (Consolidated Edison) Electricity Rate per kWh in 2026
How much does ConEd charge per kWh in 2026?
ConEd’s estimated effective residential rate is about 33.83 cents per kWh as of June 2026. A typical home using 1,000 kWh a month pays roughly $350, including the about $12 monthly customer charge. Commercial service runs about 21.43c/kWh. This is a representative average; your exact rate depends on the tariff, season, and fuel and rider charges on ConEd’s official rate schedule.
2026 published rate: Con Edison publishes its own average full-service electric rates, and for a New York City Residential (SC-1) customer the all-in rate reached about 33.83 cents per kWh in 2025, up from 33.45c in 2024 and 29.52c in 2023. That figure covers delivery, commodity, and riders and is grossed up for state and local tax; the fixed monthly customer charge is billed on top of it. Westchester Residential ran about 32.25 cents. Con Edison's NYC rate sits well above New York State's 29.93c average residential price (EIA, May 2026) because New York City delivery charges and taxes are among the highest in the country. For summer 2026 Con Edison expects a typical NYC residential bill to rise about 5.7 percent, driven mainly by higher supply (commodity) charges, while Westchester residential bills fall about 2.8 percent. Rates are set through New York PSC rate cases and monthly supply adjustments. Con Edison published average full-service electric rates (2023-2025) and 2026 rate outlook.

EIA's 2024 Form 861 census lists 1 operating company behind ConEd (Consolidated Edison Co-NY Inc, utility 4226), together serving 3,064,038 residential accounts (bundled plus delivery-only) in NY across 6 counties. Weighted across those companies, the 2024 average realised residential price for bundled service was 35.66 cents per kWh (total residential revenue divided by total residential sales). These are annual averages of what customers actually paid, including fuel and rider charges, so they will not match the tariff rate on a current bill; the estimated effective rate above is the site's forward-looking figure.
