Average residential price, 2024. Dial position: 94% of 1,230 US utilities had this price or lower. Ticks: Ohio and US averages.

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.

Ohio Power Co serves 1,339,232 residential customers in Ohio as an investor-owned utility, according to its 2024 Form EIA-861 filing, with a service territory that touches 54 counties.

Its average residential price that year was 19.33¢ per kilowatthour, 21% above the Ohio average of 15.99¢ and 17% 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 $173.55 a month on average use of 898 kWh a month. Across Ohio the average bill was $135.16 on 846 kWh, so a bill gap reflects how much power households use as well as what each kilowatthour costs.

The price covers the 550,768 residential customers on bundled service. A further 788,464 take delivery only and buy their energy from another supplier; EIA collects just part of their bill from this respondent, so they are left out of the average.

For reliability it reported a SAIDI of 272.2 minutes per customer with major event days included and 158.1 minutes with them excluded, calculated under IEEE 1366 standard. The median among Ohio utilities reporting was 226.9 minutes with major event days; this utility's figure is 20% above that median.

The average price is up 58.6% on 2019, against up 29.2% for Ohio as a whole, and up 3.8% on 2023. EIA's early release for 2025, which has not been fully edited, shows 18.97¢.

Bundled residential service only in the price, bill and use columns. Bill = residential revenue ÷ customers ÷ 12; use = residential sales ÷ customers ÷ 12. EIA describes its early release as not fully edited; it is shown for this utility alone and enters no average, median or rank on this site.

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: 10.7 TWh in total, of which 0% was its own net generation and 10.7 TWh was bought wholesale; summer peak demand 9,014 MW.

Reliability

SAIDI, all events272.2 min

SAIDI, without major event days158.1 min

Minutes of sustained interruption per customer in 2024, as the utility reported them under IEEE 1366 standard. SAIFI: 1.13 interruptions per customer with major event days, 0.99 without; CAIDI 240.9 minutes per interruption. EIA's Ohio total across all reporting utilities was 510.5 minutes with major event days and 133.2 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.
