Where City of Bountiful sits
It is a smaller system, serving 15,709 residential customers, which means its fixed costs are spread across a narrow base. At 12.97¢ per kilowatt-hour it tracks the Utah average of 12.96¢ closely, which is what you would expect from a utility large enough to shape that average itself.
Consumption is close to the national norm at 853 kilowatt-hours a month against 871, so the rate translates fairly directly into the bill.
Owned by the city it serves and governed by a local board rather than the state commission. No shareholder return is built into the rate. That matters because a bill is not only the cost of generating electricity: it also carries the cost of the network, and who owns that network changes how it is paid for.
