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 McMinnville serves 17,190 residential customers in Oregon as a municipal utility, according to its 2024 Form EIA-861 filing, with a service territory that touches 1 county.

Its average residential price that year was 7.56¢ per kilowatthour, 49% below the Oregon average of 14.70¢ and 54% 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 $74.95 a month on average use of 992 kWh a month. Across Oregon the average bill was $129.62 on 882 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 31.2 minutes per customer with major event days included, calculated under another method. The median among Oregon utilities reporting was 289.2 minutes with major event days; this utility's figure is 89% below that median.

The average price is up 8.5% on 2019, against up 33.5% for Oregon as a whole, and up 3.8% on 2023. EIA's early release for 2025, which has not been fully edited, shows 7.82¢.

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: 739.3 GWh in total, of which 0% was its own net generation and 739.3 GWh was bought wholesale; summer peak demand 158 MW.

Reliability

SAIDI, all events31.2 min
SAIDI, without major event days—

Minutes of sustained interruption per customer in 2024, as the utility reported them under another method. SAIFI: 0.30 interruptions per customer with major event days; CAIDI 105.2 minutes per interruption. EIA's Oregon total across all reporting utilities was 591.0 minutes with major event days and 130.9 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.
