Time-of-Use rates may help you save
SMECO has Time-of-Use (TOU) rates available for all residential and commercial customers. During peak times, energy costs are higher for SMECO, and during off-peak times, costs are lower. If you are billed on the traditional Standard Offer Service (SOS) rate, your cost doesn’t fluctuate based on the time of day you use the energy. But, if you select the TOU rate, your cost reflects the peak and off-peak price difference.
Standard Offer Service rate update
Total residential Standard Offer Service (SOS) rate for September: $0.110682 per kilowatt-hour (kWh).
- Summer Residential Energy Charge: $0.1057 per kWh
- September Residential Power Cost Adjustment (PCA): $0.004982 per kWh
SMECO’s PCA for September was 4.71% greater than the current residential base SOS rate.
