Fuel Rates

Historically, JEA has reviewed and adjusted electric fuel charges annually to reflect the pricing needed to recover those costs. In October 2021, the board of directors approved monthly adjustments to these charges to better reflect real-time energy costs dictated by market conditions.

Effective Dec. 1, 2021, fuel charges will adjust month-to-month based on what it costs for JEA to purchase fuel. We determine your charge based on the amount of fuel you use (based on your kilowatt-hour consumption).

Rate Options

  • SolarSmart
    JEA SolarSmart gives residential and business customers who do not have solar panels an option to benefit from solar energy and to demonstrate their commitment to improving the environment. 
  • SolarMax
    Through JEA SolarMax, large commercial customers can choose to have up to 100 percent of their business’s energy needs met by solar power. 

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.
