What does Bluebonnet Electric Coop, Inc's residential rate cost?
Bluebonnet Electric Coop, Inc files a single residential tariff, so there is no plan to choose between — everyone served here is on the same terms. That makes this page short on comparison and long on one question instead: what does that tariff actually do to a bill?
Priced hour by hour across a full year, a small apartment on this tariff comes to about $737 and a three-bedroom house with central air to about $1,177 — an effective 15.1¢ and 12.5¢ per kilowatt-hour once the fixed charge is spread across everything used.
With one plan and no hourly pricing, the only lever left is using less. Moving laundry or car charging to the middle of the night changes nothing here, which is worth knowing before you rearrange your evenings for no reason.
Expect the bill to swing with the weather rather than with anything you decide: the same house costs around $128 in July and $80 in February. Budget against the higher figure and the summer bill stops being a surprise.
