OG&E electric rates and bills
OG&E's 716,295 residential customers in Oklahoma paid an average of 12.49¢ per kWh in 2025, for an average bill of $130.71 a month on 1,046 kWh.1 Over the last 12 months (Sep 2025–Aug 2026) the average was 12.50¢, and 13.53¢ in August 2026.2
EIA-861 2025 final (released October 7, 2026) and EIA's monthly utility survey through August 2026 (preliminary); next monthly update expected November 24, 2026. Averages are revenue divided by kWh, all charges included: not the rate printed in a tariff.
58 of 77 Oklahoma counties served (EIA-861 2025)
OG&E's average residential price rose 6.0% from 2024 to 2025, then held almost still: 12.50¢ per kWh over the last 12 months against 12.49¢ per kWh1 in 2025. The larger swing is seasonal, with the average bill ranging from $76.80 in April 2026 to $239.02 in August 20262.
OG&E's price per kWh in three periods
Oklahoma Gas and Electric (OG&E) is the largest electric utility in Oklahoma, with 716,295 residential customers in 2025, 39.9% of the state's total. Those homes paid an average of 12.49¢ per kWh1 that year. Three periods are worth separating:
| Period | Source | Average residential price |
|---|---|---|
| Calendar 2025 | EIA-861, final | 12.49¢ per kWh1 |
| Last 12 months, September 2025 to August 2026 | EIA-861M, 2026 months preliminary | 12.50¢ per kWh |
| August 20263 only | EIA-861M, preliminary | 13.53¢ per kWh2 |
Each figure is average revenue per kWh: what OG&E billed its residential customers in total, divided by the kWh they used. It folds in the fixed monthly charge, the fuel adjustment and riders, and leaves out most taxes, so it does not match any line of the tariff. A single month moves with the season and with fuel costs, so the 12-month figure is the steadier guide; compared with August 2025, the August 20263 average changed +0.1%2.
The 2025 increase, and a level year after it
From 2024 to 2025, OG&E's residential average rose from 11.78¢ per kWh to 12.49¢ per kWh, an increase of 6.0%. The average bill rose less, from $125.37 to $130.71 (+4.3%), because use per home slipped from 1,064 kWh4 to 1,046 kWh1 a month.
EIA's monthly survey shows no comparable step since. The 12 months to August 2026 averaged 12.50¢ per kWh, against 12.49¢ per kWh1 for calendar 2025, on 1,066 kWh2 a month per home. Across Oklahoma as a whole the residential average rose 6.3%3 over the same 12 months against the 12 before; OG&E's 12-month figure, by contrast, sat level with its calendar 2025 average. The 2026 months are preliminary and are revised when EIA publishes the final annual data.

OG&E's prices in Oklahoma are set by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission through rate case investigations and hearings; the commission's case files show what is pending. The guide to rate increases explains how those decisions reach a bill.
A spring bill and a summer bill
Over the last 12 months, OG&E homes used the least electricity in April 2026, 726 kWh on average, for a computed average bill of $76.80. In August 2026 use reached 1,766 kWh and the average bill $239.022. Oklahoma averaged 1,978 cooling degree days a year over 2016 to 2025 in NOAA's records, 9th highest5 among the 48 states with data, and in EIA's 2020 household survey air conditioning took 22%6 of Oklahoma homes' electricity.

The 12-month average bill of $133.312 hides that range. A household budgeting by month needs the summer peak figure, not the annual average.
Lower than most large utilities in the region
Among the 25 Oklahoma utilities with 10,000 or more residential customers, OG&E's 2025 average was the 5th lowest, and it was 5.5% below the Oklahoma average. Nationally it ranked 23rd lowest of 177 large utilities, 29.8% below the national average for investor-owned utilities (17.78¢ per kWh); the median large utility averaged 15.07¢ per kWh1.
Most of the nearby investor-owned utilities in the chart below averaged more. In 2025, Entergy Arkansas's homes paid 13.36¢ per kWh, Evergy Kansas Central's 14.56¢ per kWh, Xcel Energy's in Texas 13.94¢ per kWh and Liberty's in Missouri 14.77¢ per kWh. SWEPCO's Arkansas customers paid 12.14¢ per kWh, slightly less than OG&E's. Within Oklahoma, PSO averaged 14.23¢ per kWh1.

Bills rank differently because use per home differs. OG&E's $130.71 a month in 2025 sat above SWEPCO Arkansas ($108.10) and Evergy Kansas Central ($123.78), level with Xcel Energy in Texas ($130.54), and below PSO ($145.20) and Entergy Arkansas ($144.921).

Variable peak pricing and rooftop solar
Every OG&E residential meter was an advanced meter in 2025 (100.0% in EIA's count). OG&E reported 87,484 residential customers, 12.2% of the total, on time-varying rates, under time-of-use and variable peak pricing7. EIA's EIA-861 instructions define variable peak pricing as a form of time-of-use pricing in which the off-peak price is constant and the on-peak price is set each day, published the day before. On such a rate, the on-peak price can differ from one weekday to the next. OG&E publishes its plans and peak hours on its own site; the time-of-use guide shows how hourly prices change a bill.
Enrollment is far lower than at PSO, which reported 99.7%7 of its residential customers on time-of-use rates, so OG&E's average reflects mostly standard-rate homes.
Rooftop solar is more common on OG&E's system than on PSO's: 9,838 net-metered residential installations in 2025, 13.7 per 1,000 customers, with 69.1 megawatts of capacity (PSO: 9.27 per 1,000).
Where OG&E serves
EIA's 2025 territory records place OG&E in 58 of Oklahoma's 77 counties, and in all 588 at least one other distribution utility also reports customers. Cooperatives, city systems and PSO serve parts of the same counties, so a county or ZIP code does not settle which utility serves a home: the utilities' own service maps do. According to the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, most cooperatives have opted out of its price regulation, so their prices are set separately from OG&E's; the Oklahoma page compares their averages.

Outages
OG&E customers averaged 237 minutes without power in 2025 including major events, fewer than the Oklahoma average of 286 minutes, and 145 minutes excluding them, with 1.7110 interruptions per customer. OG&E reported these under another method (not IEEE 1366), so the totals are not strictly comparable with utilities that use the IEEE 1366 standard; PSO reported under IEEE 1366.
Commercial and industrial prices
OG&E's 114,537 commercial customers paid 8.02¢ per kWh on average in 2025, and its 8,389 industrial accounts 5.91¢ per kWh, against 12.49¢ per kWh for homes. The average across every class and all 839,221 accounts was 8.83¢ per kWh. Large users spread fixed costs over far more kWh, which lowers their average. OG&E operates in the SPP1 (Southwest Power Pool) wholesale market, according to its EIA filing.
OG&E rates and bills: questions
What is OG&E's rate per kWh?
OG&E's residential customers paid an average of 12.50¢ per kWh2 over the last 12 months (September 2025 to August 2026, 2026 months preliminary) and 12.49¢ per kWh1 in calendar 2025. That is total residential revenue divided by kWh sold, so it includes the monthly customer charge, fuel recovery and riders. The energy charges in OG&E's tariff are only part of it, and the price paid per kWh differs from home to home.
How much is the average OG&E electric bill?
$130.71 a month in 2025, for 1,046 kWh1 of electricity, and $133.312 on average over the last 12 months (September 2025 to August 2026). These are EIA averages before most taxes, not an individual bill.
Did OG&E raise rates?
The average price its homes paid rose from 11.78¢ per kWh4 in 2024 to 12.49¢ per kWh in 2025 (+6.0%1). In August 20263, the latest month EIA has published, the average was 13.53¢ per kWh, +0.1%2 against the same month a year earlier. Approved base-rate changes are in the Oklahoma Corporation Commission's case files.
Can I choose a different electric provider instead of OG&E?
No. Oklahoma has no residential retail choice: EIA counted 01 residential customers buying from a competitive supplier in 2025. The utility whose territory includes your address is your supplier.
