City of Jellico
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.
City of Jellico is a municipal utility that reported 3,383 residential customers in Kentucky and 1 other state on Form EIA-861 for 2024, with a service territory that touches 2 counties.
Its average residential price that year was 13.09¢ per kilowatthour, about the same as the Kentucky average of 12.79¢ and 21% 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 $142.53 a month on average use of 1,089 kWh a month. Across Kentucky the average bill was $133.81 on 1,047 kWh, so a bill gap reflects how much power households use as well as what each kilowatthour costs.
EIA's reliability file has no SAIDI or SAIFI entry for it in 2024; smaller respondents and energy-only suppliers are not asked for one.
The average price is up 24.5% on 2019, against up 18.4% for Kentucky as a whole, and up 4.6% on 2023.
