FAQ
Common questions about Ohio Edison Co rates
- How much does Ohio Edison Co charge per kWh?
- Ohio Edison Co reported an average residential price of 16.18¢ per kWh across its bundled residential customers in the 2024 EIA Form 861 release. That is an annual average across all its residential customers, not a rate schedule, so an individual bill depends on the tariff, usage pattern and season.
- Is Ohio Edison Co expensive compared with the rest of Ohio?
- Its average residential price is close to the Ohio customer-weighted average of 16.55¢ per kWh, a difference of -2.3%. The state figure is weighted by customers across the 39 utilities reporting residential service in Ohio.
- What is the average electricity bill for Ohio Edison Co customers?
- Dividing reported residential sales by residential customers gives about 9,428 kWh per customer per year. At the reported average price that implies roughly $1,525 a year, or about $127 a month. This is RateWatt's arithmetic on two EIA columns, not a figure EIA publishes.
- Who owns Ohio Edison Co?
- EIA classifies Ohio Edison Co as Investor Owned, a shareholder-owned company whose retail rates are set through a state regulatory commission. Nationally, the customer-weighted average across Investor Owned utilities was 18.37¢ per kWh in the 2024 Form 861 release.
