PUD No 1 of Jefferson County
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, PUD No 1 of Jefferson County, a public power district, reported 18,661 residential customers in Washington, with a service territory that touches 1 county.
Its average residential price that year was 13.01¢ per kilowatthour, 9.3% above the Washington average of 11.90¢ 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 $129.58 a month on average use of 996 kWh a month. Across Washington the average bill was $113.68 on 955 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 522.3 minutes per customer with major event days included and 424.0 minutes with them excluded, calculated under IEEE 1366 standard. The median among Washington utilities reporting was 255.4 minutes with major event days; this utility's figure is 105% above that median.
The average price is up 13.8% on 2019, against up 22.6% for Washington as a whole, and up 4.4% on 2023.

Sales by sector, 2024
| Sector | Customers | Sales | Share of sales | Revenue | ¢ per kWh, bundled |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Residential | 18,661 | 223.1 GWh | 58% | $29,017,300 | 13.01¢ |

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: 402 GWh in total, of which 0% was its own net generation and 402 GWh was bought wholesale; summer peak demand 42 MW.
Reliability
Minutes of sustained interruption per customer in 2024, as the utility reported them under IEEE 1366 standard. SAIFI: 2.95 interruptions per customer with major event days, 2.71 without; CAIDI 177.1 minutes per interruption. EIA's Washington total across all reporting utilities was 623.5 minutes with major event days and 158.6 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.
