Rockland Electric Co Electricity Rate per kWh (2024 EIA Data)
Investor Owned|EIA utility 16213|New Jersey|Bundled + Delivery
In 2024, Rockland Electric Co's residential customers paid an average of 21.04 cents per kWh: $149 million of revenue over 708,844 MWh of sales across 63,679 bundled residential customers, plus 2,681 delivery-only residential accounts that buy their energy elsewhere, as reported to EIA on Form 861.
How the 21.04c figure is calculated
21.04c/kWh = $149,165k revenue / 708,844 MWh x 100. This is EIA's average realised price for 2024: everything Rockland Electric Co 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 $210 before taxes.
About Rockland Electric Co's 2024 electricity prices
Rockland Electric Co is an investor-owned electric utility that reports to the U.S. Energy Information Administration under utility number 16213. In 2024 it served 63,679 bundled residential customers in New Jersey (plus 2,681 delivery-only residential accounts that buy their energy from a competitive supplier), and its average realised residential price was 21.04 cents per kWh: $149 million of residential revenue divided by 708,844 MWh of residential sales.
Across the other sectors, Rockland Electric Co's 2024 average prices were 19.22 cents for commercial customers (8,283 accounts) and 12.39 cents for industrial customers (13 accounts). Industrial customers paid 8.65 cents less per kWh than households, a 41% discount that is typical of high-volume, high-voltage service. New Jersey allows retail choice, so the customer base splits two ways: 63,679 residential customers took bundled service (energy plus delivery) at 21.04 cents per kWh, while 2,681 bought their energy from a competitive supplier and paid Rockland Electric Co only for delivery, which averaged 8.06 cents per kWh for the wires portion.
Within New Jersey, Rockland Electric Co ranked number 4 of 5 utilities with bundled or delivery service by residential accounts served (66,360, bundled plus delivery-only) and accounted for 2.51% 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 19.34 cents per kWh, so Rockland Electric Co's customers paid 1.70 cents above the New Jersey average (+8.8%). For context, EIA's latest monthly figure for New Jersey is 24.95 cents per kWh (June 2026, Electric Power Monthly); that is a different, more recent measure across all utilities and is not directly comparable with a 2024 annual average.
EIA's service-territory file places Rockland Electric Co in 3 New Jersey counties: Bergen, Passaic, and Sussex. On the grid side it operates in the NPCC NERC region and the PJM Interconnection market, and reported transmission and distribution as its activities. Balancing authority codes: NYIS, PJM.

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.
