Beginning in 2027, Sioux Valley Energy will separate demand from the current blended rate and show it as its own charge for residential, rural residential, and general service members on the Standard Rate.
Members who are able to shift much of their electricity use to certain blocks of time during the day may want to consider the optional Time-of-Use (TOU) Rate.
The TOU Rate does not include a monthly demand charge. Instead, it has higher energy rates during onpeak hours and lower energy rates during off-peak hours. Members currently on the Standard Rate will remain on that rate unless they request to move to the TOU Rate. Likewise, members already on the TOU Rate will stay on it unless they request to go off that rate.
