Revenue 443,090.9 thousand dollars. Sales 4,924,892 MWh. Customers 707,239. Cents per kWh = revenue ÷ megawatt-hours × 100. Monthly bill = revenue × 1,000 ÷ customers ÷ 12.

Why a Dynegy Energy Services bill moved

The average bill fell, and the price piece is separate

From 2024 to 2025 the average energy supply bill at Dynegy Energy Services moved −24.4%, from $69.10 to $52.21. Holding the 2024 price fixed, the usage change of −26.6% is worth −$18.39 a month. The price change of +2.9%, from 8.74¢ to 9.00¢, is worth $1.49 on 2025 usage.

Below the Ohio average

9.00¢ per kWh is below Ohio's 2025 residential average of 16.90¢. July 2026 in the state was 19.45¢, versus 17.38¢ a year earlier (+11.9%). The utility figure is a full year of average revenue. The state figure is one later month. A household that uses more than 580 kWh will not land on $52.21.

This row is the retail plan, not the wires

Dynegy Energy Services is an EIA retail power marketer. The 2025 bundled average, 9.00¢ per kWh across 707,239 customers, is plan revenue. In Texas and other choice markets the transmission and distribution utility still bills a delivery charge, either inside the plan or beside it. Whether a quoted cents-per-kWh already includes delivery needs verification on that plan's electricity facts label.

Season

The 2025 monthly average for this Dynegy Energy Services service was 580 kWh, and the Ohio residential average was 874 kWh. A single month can sit far from either figure. Compare kilowatt-hours with the same month last year before you treat the whole increase as a rate hike.

Data-center load is not a line on this bill

National electricity demand is rising, and EIA points to large computing facilities. No retrieved order isolates a data-center dollar on a Dynegy Energy Services residential account. That pass-through needs verification.

How to lower the bill

  1. Read the kilowatt-hours against this filing's average of 580 kWh a month. If your use is the thing that moved, the dollar total can rise on an unchanged rate.
  2. Ask the retailer whether the quoted price includes the utility delivery charge. The EIA average on this page does not answer that plan-design question.
  3. Match this month's weather to last year's same month. A mild comparison month makes an ordinary bill look like a hike.
  4. Start with LIHEAP for Ohio (https://www.acf.hhs.gov/ocs/map/liheap-map-state-and-territory-contact-listing). A Dynegy Energy Services discount beyond that program needs verification.
  5. If the read is marked estimated, the next actual read can true the account up or down. The tariff rule for that true-up needs verification.

Holding the 2024 price fixed, the usage change accounts for −$18.39 a month. The price change, applied to 2025 usage, accounts for $1.49.

What was Dynegy Energy Services's average residential rate?

Using 2025 EIA-861 revenue and sales, the energy supply average was 9.00¢ per kWh. Average use was 580 kWh a month and the average bill was $52.21. This folds in whatever customer charges and riders the utility reported. It is not the marginal rate on your tariff.

Did Dynegy Energy Services raise rates?

The energy supply average price changed +2.9% from 2024 to 2025, from 8.74¢ to 9.00¢. That is average revenue per kilowatt-hour, not a commission order. No 2025–2026 order for this utility was retrieved for this page. A separate rider can still move a single month.

What bill assistance can Dynegy Energy Services customers ask about?

LIHEAP is the federal program for home energy bills (https://www.acf.hhs.gov/ocs/programs/liheap). Dynegy Energy Services may also offer an income-qualified discount, budget billing, or a medical baseline. The current offer, income cutoff, and how to apply need verification with the state LIHEAP office and Public Utilities Commission of Ohio.

Are data centers why this bill went up?

Large computing load is raising U.S. electricity demand, and regulators can later recover new generation and wires costs from customers. EIA has not published a dollar line that isolates data centers on this utility's residential bill. That pass-through needs verification.
