City of Fremont
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 Fremont, a municipal utility, reported 14,077 residential customers in Nebraska, with a service territory that touches 1 county.
Its average residential price that year was 11.97¢ per kilowatthour, 3.8% above the Nebraska average of 11.53¢ and 27% below 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 $102.39 a month on average use of 856 kWh a month. Across Nebraska the average bill was $110.28 on 956 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 17.8 minutes per customer with major event days included and 17.8 minutes with them excluded, calculated under IEEE 1366 standard. The median among Nebraska utilities reporting was 138.3 minutes with major event days; this utility's figure is 87% below that median.
The average price is up 15.1% on 2019, against up 7.1% for Nebraska as a whole, and down 1.8% on 2023. EIA's early release for 2025, which has not been fully edited, shows 12.27¢.

Sales by sector, 2024
| Sector | Customers | Sales | Share of sales | Revenue | ¢ per kWh, bundled |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Residential | 14,077 | 144.5 GWh | 28% | $17,296,100 | 11.97¢ |
| Commercial | 1,972 | 56.6 GWh | 11% | $6,092,700 | 10.76¢ |
| Industrial | 573 | 306.7 GWh | 60% | $27,659,500 | 9.02¢ |
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: 792.9 GWh in total, of which 67.3% was its own net generation and 259.2 GWh was bought wholesale; summer peak demand 116 MW.
Reliability
Minutes of sustained interruption per customer in 2024, as the utility reported them under IEEE 1366 standard. SAIFI: 0.19 interruptions per customer with major event days, 0.19 without; CAIDI 93.6 minutes per interruption. EIA's Nebraska total across all reporting utilities was 641.7 minutes with major event days and 73.6 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

- Solar 0.8% 3.9 GWh
Net generation of 465.8 GWh at power plants this utility operates, from Form EIA-923. It is not the mix delivered to customers: utilities also buy power wholesale (259.2 GWh in 2024), sell generation to others and may co-own plants that another company operates.
