The rate on the record

Municipal residential rates are often set by a city board, not the state commission. Needs verification. Average revenue per kilowatt-hour is total residential revenue divided by residential sales. It is not a tariff schedule.

Audit the full service average

Revenue 19,696 thousand dollars. Sales 136,740 MWh. Customers 13,903. Cents per kWh = revenue ÷ megawatt-hours × 100. Monthly bill = revenue × 1,000 ÷ customers ÷ 12.

Why the bill spikes

Season

The 2025 monthly average in Utah was 761 kWh. A hot or cold month can sit far from that. Compare kilowatt-hours with the same month last year before you blame the rate.

How to lower the bill

  1. Read kilowatt-hours first. If use is up, the dollar total can rise on an unchanged rate.
  2. Check whether the read is actual or estimated. The true-up rule needs verification in the tariff.
  3. If a supplier or aggregator is also on the account, add that charge to the utility charge.
  4. Ask about budget billing and an income-qualified discount. Eligibility needs verification.
  5. If you are on time-of-use, move flexible load out of the expensive window. Confirm the window on the tariff.

What was Heber Light & Power's average residential rate?

Using 2025 EIA-861 revenue and sales, the full service average was 14.40¢ per kWh. Average use was 820 kWh a month and the average bill was $118.06. This folds in whatever customer charges and riders the utility reported. It is not the marginal rate on your tariff.

What bill assistance can Heber Light & Power customers ask about?

LIHEAP is the federal program for home energy bills (https://www.acf.hhs.gov/ocs/programs/liheap). Heber Light & Power 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 Utah Public Service Commission.

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.
