Electric utilities serving Clark County, Wisconsin
Utilities that list the county in their Form EIA-861 service territory for 2024, with each one's average price, bill and outage minutes.
Clark County, Wisconsin, appears in the Form EIA-861 service territory of 6 utilities for 2024; Northern States Power Co, Eau Claire Electric Coop and City of Marshfield are the largest by residential customers statewide.
Their average residential prices ran from 10.07¢ to 15.83¢ per kilowatthour, with a median of 12.95¢, against a Wisconsin average of 17.18¢ and a US average of 16.48¢. Each price is the utility's figure for all of its Wisconsin customers, not for this county alone.
The median SAIDI they reported was 122.2 minutes per customer including major event days; the median among all Wisconsin utilities reporting was 51.0.
The Census Bureau estimates the county's population at 35,052. 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 Wisconsin operation; EIA publishes nothing at county level.
