City of Anaheim
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. Annual figures: Form EIA-861 for 2024, final release. Monthly state figures run to July 2026.
In its Form EIA-861 filing for 2024, City of Anaheim, a municipal utility, reported 105,839 residential customers in California, with a service territory that touches 1 county.
Its average residential price that year was 17.11¢ per kilowatthour, 46% below the California average of 31.97¢ and 3.8% above the US average of 16.48¢. The figure is residential revenue divided by residential sales, so it folds in fixed charges, riders and every rate schedule the utility bills under.
That works out to an average residential bill of $79.86 a month on average use of 467 kWh a month. Across California the average bill was $160.86 on 503 kWh, so a bill gap reflects how much power households use as well as what each kilowatthour costs.
For reliability it reported a SAIDI of 46.3 minutes per customer with major event days included and 46.3 minutes with them excluded, calculated under IEEE 1366 standard. The median among California utilities reporting was 74.0 minutes with major event days; this utility's figure is 37% below that median.
The average price is little changed on 2019, against up 66.9% for California as a whole, and down 2.5% on 2023.

Bundled residential service only in the price, bill and use columns. Bill = residential revenue ÷ customers ÷ 12; use = residential sales ÷ customers ÷ 12.
Sales by sector, 2024
| Sector | Customers | Sales | Share of sales | Revenue | ¢ per kWh, bundled |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Residential | 105,839 | 592.7 GWh | 28% | $101,425,000 | 17.11¢ |
| Commercial | 17,557 | 725.8 GWh | 34% | $128,635,000 | 17.72¢ |
| Industrial | 269 | 819.6 GWh | 38% | $127,256,000 | 15.53¢ |
Customers, sales and revenue count every service type the utility reported (bundled, energy-only and delivery-only). The price column uses bundled service alone, because part-bill revenue would understate it. Sources of energy: 2.9 TWh in total, of which 0% was its own net generation and 2.9 TWh was bought wholesale; summer peak demand 579 MW.
Reliability
Minutes of sustained interruption per customer in 2024, as the utility reported them under IEEE 1366 standard. SAIFI: 0.63 interruptions per customer with major event days, 0.63 without; CAIDI 73.6 minutes per interruption. EIA's California total across all reporting utilities was 279.6 minutes with major event days and 158.2 without. Major event days are storms and similar events that a utility's chosen method sets apart; methods differ, so treat comparisons as approximate. What SAIDI and SAIFI mean.

Generation at plants it operates, 2025
- Natural gas 100% 13.3 GWh
Net generation of 13.3 GWh at power plants this utility operates, from Form EIA-923. It is not the mix delivered to customers: utilities also buy power wholesale (2.9 TWh in 2024), sell generation to others and may co-own plants that another company operates.
Counties in its service territory
Counties the utility listed on Form EIA-861 for 2024. Listing a county does not mean the utility serves all of it.
