New York State Elec & Gas Corp Electricity Rate per kWh (2024 EIA Data)
Investor Owned|EIA utility 13511|New York|Bundled + Delivery
In 2024, New York State Elec & Gas Corp's residential customers paid an average of 18.32 cents per kWh: $1,168 million of revenue over 6.38 million MWh of sales across 735,192 bundled residential customers, plus 57,108 delivery-only residential accounts that buy their energy elsewhere, as reported to EIA on Form 861.
How the 18.32c figure is calculated
18.32c/kWh = $1,168,063k revenue / 6,375,673 MWh x 100. This is EIA's average realised price for 2024: everything New York State Elec & Gas Corp 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 $183 before taxes.

New York State Elec & Gas Corp is an investor-owned electric utility that reports to the U.S. Energy Information Administration under utility number 13511. In 2024 it served 735,192 bundled residential customers in New York (plus 57,108 delivery-only residential accounts that buy their energy from a competitive supplier), and its average realised residential price was 18.32 cents per kWh: $1,168 million of residential revenue divided by 6.38 million MWh of residential sales.

Within New York, New York State Elec & Gas Corp ranked number 4 of 15 utilities with bundled or delivery service by residential accounts served (792,300, bundled plus delivery-only) and accounted for 13.61% of the state's residential electricity sales in 2024, measured in MWh sold or delivered rather than in customers.

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.
