Energia Tariff Rates


Here are our most up-to-date energy rates and tariffs for both electricity and gas.


A kilowatt hour (kWh) is a unit of measure of how much energy you're using. For example, if you use 1 kW it is the amount of energy used to run a 1,000 watt appliance for an hour. The more kWh you use, the higher your energy bill will be. 

A Standing Charge is a fixed daily charge that covers the costs associate with keeping your property connected to the energy grid.
