Electric Power Rates – Commercial/Industrial

AUB offers seven basic commercial rates, GSA, GSB, GSC, GSD, MSB, MSC and MSD. “GS” denotes General Services and applies to commercial entities not engaged in manufacturing, such as churches, schools, restaurants, retail stores, etc. “MS” denotes Manufacturing Services. The differentiation between the GS and MS classes is determined by the entity's Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code. Commercial rate qualification is determined by the customer's kilowatt (kw) demand.

The GSA rate is for commercial accounts with a demand between 0 kw and 5,000 kw; GSB/MSB are for commercial/manufacturing accounts with a demand between 5,001 kw and 15,000kw; and GSC/MSC are for accounts with a demand between 15,001 kw and 25,000 kw.

Note: All rates per kWh in the commercial/industrial schedule below are AUB's base rate. Each month, TVA announces a Fuel Cost Adjustment for the period, which is added to the AUB base per-kWh rate.

General Power Rate - Schedule GSA:

NOTE: The Energy Charges shown in the table below for this rate class are the base charges. Each month, a fuel cost adjustment is added by TVA to the base energy charge. Therefore, to arrive at the full energy charge per kilowatt hour, add this month's FCA to the base energy charge shown in the table below.

NOTE: The FCA for GSA Part 1 is (.00529).

Part 1: For customers whose peak demand is not more than 50 kW and monthly energy usage does not exceed 15,000 kWh.
