As a non-profit municipal electric utility, we work hard to keep our electric rates as low as possible while continuing to provide reliable service.

Current Electric Rates

Richland City Council approved a rate increase for all customer classes (Residential, Commercial and Industrial) in 2019. Rates are primarily determined by wholesale power costs, which is the utility's most significant operating cost, comprising over 60% of RES' expenses.

A review of a recent rate comparison will show that Richland Energy Services (RES) offers some of the lowest electric rates in Washington.
