Within Kansas, Southern Pioneer Electric Company ranked number 10 of 22 utilities with bundled or delivery service by residential accounts served (12,602) and accounted for 0.85% 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 14.15 cents per kWh, so Southern Pioneer Electric Company's customers paid 1.71 cents above the Kansas average (+12.1%).
