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.

PUD No 1 of Klickitat County serves 11,917 residential customers in Washington as a public power district, according to its 2024 Form EIA-861 filing, with a service territory that touches 4 counties.

Its average residential price that year was 12.05¢ per kilowatthour, about the same as the Washington average of 11.90¢ 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 $138.39 a month on average use of 1,148 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 384.0 minutes per customer with major event days included and 384.0 minutes with them excluded, calculated under another method. The median among Washington utilities reporting was 255.4 minutes with major event days; this utility's figure is 50% above that median.

The average price is up 6.1% on 2019, against up 22.6% for Washington as a whole, and up 4.1% on 2023. EIA's early release for 2025, which has not been fully edited, shows 12.55¢.

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: 438.4 GWh in total, of which 8.5% was its own net generation and 401.3 GWh was bought wholesale; summer peak demand 77 MW.

Reliability

Minutes of sustained interruption per customer in 2024, as the utility reported them under another method. SAIFI: 1.93 interruptions per customer with major event days, 1.93 without; CAIDI 199.0 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.
