Calculating Your Electric Bill

It's possible, if you read your meter on the same day as your Alcoa Electric meter reader, to get a close approximation of your electric bill. To calculate your bill, you will need to take your usage for the month (in kilowatt hours) and multiply by the Energy Rate of, for example, 8.948 cents per kilowatt hour. Add this to your monthly customer charge (currently a flat rate of $17.00 for all Alcoa Electric residential customers) to get your total monthly charge.
