Power Cost Increases in June
TVA adjusts rates to summer prices and accounts for fuel costs
(June 2, 2025 – Centerville, TN) – The price of electricity will be higher in June as the Tennessee Valley Authority moves to summer rates and their fuel adjustment cost increases. Meriwether Lewis members will pay about $7.68 more (a 4.5 percent increase) compared to May based on an average household that uses 1200 kilowatt-hours. The total residential kilowatt-hour price is $0.11114, which is slightly higher than the seasonal price a year ago.
