4 utilities list Hood River County, Oregon, in the service territory they reported to EIA for 2024, the largest by residential customers statewide being PacifiCorp, Hood River Electric Coop and City of Cascade Locks.

Its average residential price was 14.02¢ per kilowatthour, against a Oregon average of 14.70¢ and a US average of 16.48¢. Each price is the utility's figure for all of its Oregon customers, not for this county alone.

The Census Bureau estimates the county's population at 23,720. 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.
