Electric utilities serving Snohomish County, Washington
Utilities that list the county in their Form EIA-861 service territory for 2024, with each one's average price, bill and outage minutes.
2 utilities list Snohomish County, Washington, in the service territory they reported to EIA for 2024, the largest by residential customers statewide being PUD No 1 of Snohomish County and Bonneville Power Administration.
Its average residential price was 11.51¢ per kilowatthour, against a Washington average of 11.90¢ and a US average of 16.48¢. Each price is the utility's figure for all of its Washington customers, not for this county alone.
Bonneville Power Administration lists the county too but reported no residential sales in Washington under its own name.
The median SAIDI they reported was 620.9 minutes per customer including major event days; the median among all Washington utilities reporting was 255.4.
The Census Bureau estimates the county's population at 870,656. 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 Washington operation; EIA publishes nothing at county level.
