Residential Rates

Bluebonnet’s rate for residential electric service is divided into two line item charges on the bill; Wholesale Power Cost and Bluebonnet Residential Service. Wholesale Power Cost is the cost Bluebonnet has to pay our power provider for generating and delivering electricity to Bluebonnet’s electric substations. Bluebonnet Residential Service is the cost of delivering electricity to each member’s home.

The following example is for the residential rate:

The Wholesale Power Cost consists of:

Wholesale Power Charge - ($0.072674 per kWh) – cost of purchased power, plus

Power Cost Recover Factor (PCRF) – variable, per kWh, rate based on fluctuations in generating costs.

The Bluebonnet Residential Service cost consists of:

Bluebonnet Service Charge - ($0.023948 per kWh) - electric distribution system expenses, and

The Member Charge is ($22.50 per month) the monthly expense for each meter including meter reading,

billing, payment processing, etc.

The following equation shows how these elements add up to your Total Charges.

Wholesale Power Cost = A
Bluebonnet Residential Service = B
Member Charge = C
X = kWh used

AX + BX +C = Total Charges
