Evangeline Parish, Louisiana, appears in the Form EIA-861 service territory of 3 utilities for 2024; Cleco Power LLC, Southwest Louisiana E M C and Beauregard Electric Coop, Inc are the largest by residential customers statewide.
Their average residential prices ran from 11.55¢ to 13.70¢ per kilowatthour, with a median of 12.33¢, against a Louisiana average of 11.73¢ and a US average of 16.48¢. Each price is the utility's figure for all of its Louisiana customers, not for this county alone.
The median SAIDI they reported was 985.4 minutes per customer including major event days; the median among all Louisiana utilities reporting was 586.4.
The Census Bureau estimates the county's population at 31,980. EIA does not publish customers by county, so which utility serves a given address has to be confirmed with the utility or the state utility commission.
Average price is revenue divided by sales for the sector and year; it is not a tariff rate. Reliability figures are as reported by utilities to EIA on Form 861 and may use different calculation methods. Figures are for each utility's whole Louisiana operation; EIA publishes nothing at county level.
