How Customer Revenue is Used

Industrial/Commercial Rates

(Effective January 2012)

Ripley Power & Light’s customers enjoy some of the lowest electric rates in the country.

We buy our electricity from the Tennessee Valley Authority, which has a history of providing lower-cost electric power. The purchase of electricity, in fact, is a large amount of Ripley Power & Light’s electric cost. About 82 cents of every dollar paid by our customers for electricity is used to purchase energy from TVA.

Ripley Power & Light also offers a variety of commercial/industrial rate structures and incentives for industry and other large electric users.
