Electricity cost in Phoenix

A Phoenix ZIP gives a geographic planning context, not the account's utility, rate schedule, demand rules or time-of-use periods. Use actual summer bills for equipment decisions.

Phoenix planning benchmark$160.24/month

Arizona's final 2024 EIA residential average at 1,075 kWh/month. It is not a Phoenix neighborhood average or a peak-summer bill.

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.
