Average residential price, 2024. Dial position: 61% of 1,230 US utilities had this price or lower. Ticks: Texas 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.

In its Form EIA-861 filing for 2024, Varsity Energy, a retail power marketer, reported 7,180 residential customers in Texas.

Its average residential price that year was 14.05¢ per kilowatthour, 6.0% below the Texas average of 14.94¢ and 15% 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 $149.99 a month on average use of 1,067 kWh a month. Across Texas the average bill was $163.72 on 1,096 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 2.3% on 2023.
