Rates

 
Item

Our rates are designed to cover the cost of operating your electric, water and sewer utilities and to pay down the debt for money borrowed to expand and improve our infrastructure. Our rates also cover current state and federal regulations. Utility service is a complicated and costly business. We work hard to be responsible stewards of your business and the environment, while bringing you the most reliable service possible.

How Our Prices Compare

Currently our prices are below average for the state. And you may not realize it, but your JEA bill is about 12% less today than it was six years ago, when adjusted for inflation.

Understanding Commercial Electric Rates

When talking with commercial customers about their utility bill, the conversation inevitably leads to a discussion about rates. Although the rates are important, the bill is predominantly tied to the facility’s consumption, rather than the rate.

Tariff Schedules

JEA’s tariffs cover rising operating costs, as well as the rising construction costs of replacing and refurbishing aging utility infrastructure. All tariffs are approved by JEA’s Board of Directors and filed with the Public Service Commission in Tallahassee.

    • Budget Process

      JEA has a budget to pay for its business requirements to provide reliable services to our customers rain or shine, summer or winter, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

    • Fuel Fund

      JEA uses a diverse mix of fuels to power our plants, and our customers often benefit from this diversity. How? Because when the price of one fuel increases relative to the cost of others, JEA shifts generation capacity towards the more economical, lesser-priced fuel.
