Electric utilities serving Sioux County, Nebraska
Utilities that list the county in their Form EIA-861 service territory for 2024, with each one's average price, bill and outage minutes.
Sioux County, Nebraska, appears in the Form EIA-861 service territory of 9 utilities for 2024; Nebraska Public Power District, Panhandle Rural El Member Assn and Roosevelt Public Power Dist are the largest by residential customers statewide.
Its average residential price was 10.63¢ per kilowatthour, against a Nebraska average of 11.53¢ and a US average of 16.48¢. Each price is the utility's figure for all of its Nebraska customers, not for this county alone.
WAPA: Western Area Power Administration lists the county too but reported no residential sales in Nebraska under its own name.
The median SAIDI they reported was 74.4 minutes per customer including major event days; the median among all Nebraska utilities reporting was 138.3.
The Census Bureau estimates the county's population at 1,188. 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 Nebraska operation; EIA publishes nothing at county level.
