Within Missouri, SEMO Electric Cooperative ranked number 31 of 45 utilities with bundled or delivery service by residential accounts served (10,783) and accounted for 0.49% 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 12.91 cents per kWh, so SEMO Electric Cooperative's customers paid 0.12 cents below the Missouri average (-0.9%).
