1 utility list Wayne County, Tennessee, in the service territory they reported to EIA for 2024: Tennessee Valley Electric Coop.
Its average residential price was 12.41¢ per kilowatthour, against a Tennessee average of 12.42¢ and a US average of 16.48¢. Each price is the utility's figure for all of its Tennessee customers, not for this county alone.
The Census Bureau estimates the county's population at 16,416. 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 Tennessee operation; EIA publishes nothing at county level.
