Electricity cost in Ohio

Ohio electricity comparisons should separate utility delivery, supplier charges, fixed fees and actual usage. The statewide EIA average is a benchmark, not an address-specific offer.

Ohio residential benchmark15.99¢/kWh

Final 2024 EIA average: 846 kWh/month and $135.16/month. Verify current utility and supplier terms before acting.

What changes the real result?

  • All-in delivered rate, fixed fees and time-of-use periods
  • Actual monthly kWh and seasonal HVAC load
  • Plan term, minimum-use rules, credits and early termination
  • Solar export compensation and address-specific production
  • EV charging losses, vehicle efficiency and charging time
DO NOT MIX THESE NUMBERS

Average price ≠ utility tariff ≠ retail offer.

EIA divides residential revenue by electricity sold to create an average-revenue benchmark. Your bill applies address-specific rate rules and fees. In competitive markets, compare the full disclosure document at your normal usage—not only the advertised cents per kWh.
