This plan prices by time of day, so a monthly total alone does not determine the bill. The columns are the bounds: every kWh in the cheapest period, and every kWh in the dearest. A real bill falls between them, and where it falls is what this plan is asking you to change.
Before taxes, franchise fees and any local surcharge.

Transcription notes recorded when this tariff was encoded, including anything deliberately left out.
BUNDLED, WHICH IS UNUSUAL FOR NEW YORK. The catalogue's other New York encodings are delivery-only because the state has retail choice. LIPA's default is full-requirements service from the Authority and the Power Supply Charge is billed under this same tariff, so these rates include supply. Retail choice exists as the Long Island Choice Program under S.C. No. 14 - the opt-out alternative, not the default.
A PUBLIC AUTHORITY, NOT A COMMISSION-REGULATED UTILITY. LIPA is a political subdivision of New York State and adopts its own rates through its Board of Trustees; there is no PSC rate case behind these figures. PSEG Long Island operates the system and prints the bills under contract, which is why its customer booklet carries the same numbers - the tariff is LIPA's and is what was read here.
THE SERVICE CHARGE IS PER DAY, NOT PER MONTH: $0.5600/day on all four rate codes. A 31-day month is $17.22 and a 28-day month is $15.56, so the fixed charge itself varies with the calendar. The same shape as We Energies.
THE SUPPLY CHARGE IS THE NOVEMBER 2026 VALUE AND HAS A ONE-MONTH SHELF LIFE. LIPA republishes the Power Supply Charge monthly as a numbered statement and it can move violently: this one, Statement No. 119-PSC at 14.2906c/kWh, is +2.7% on September's 13.9200c, which was 20.1% above August's 11.6387c. The delivery charges underneath it are stable and date from January 2025 and January 2026 by leaf.
THE THREE PERCENTAGE ADJUSTMENTS ARE INCLUDED IN THESE RATES. Revenue Decoupling -0.1776% and the Delivery Service Adjustment -0.8870% apply to the delivery charge; the New York State Assessment +0.2820% applies to the whole bill after them. Worth about -0.6% all in.
WHAT IS STILL MISSING DEPENDS ON WHERE YOU LIVE, and no single rate can hold two answers. The Shoreham Property Tax Settlement is 2.2248% in Suffolk County and 0.0000% in Nassau and the Rockaways; PILOT recovery is 2.5299%, 3.5921% or 5.0613% by municipality. A Suffolk bill and a Nassau bill differ by more than 2c/kWh on identical usage. Two narrower ones are also excluded: the Visual Benefits Assessment at $0.003435/kWh applies only in the Town of Southampton east of the Shinnecock Canal, and the Undergrounding Charge at $0.003053/kWh only in Westhampton Beach.
THE SECURITIZATION CHARGES ARE EXCLUDED BECAUSE THEY CANCEL. Statement No. 30-SC prints six of them totalling $0.019931/kWh and a Securitization Offset Charge of exactly ($0.019931)/kWh against them - a net of zero on the bill, not an omission.
A SUPERSEDED RIDER IS STILL LINKED FROM LIPA'S OWN PAGE, and is not encoded. Statement No. 7-EER, the Energy Efficiency Cost Recovery Rate, is dated April 2015. Leaf 186 lists every adjustment a residential bill carries and EER is not among them, while the Distributed Energy Resources statement that IS listed carries a line captioned 'Energy Efficiency Cost Recovery Rate ($/kWh) $0.006014'. Encoding both would have double-counted it.
FEDERAL HOLIDAYS ARE OFF-PEAK AND THIS ENCODING CANNOT SAY SO. The tariff excludes federal holidays from peak hours; a 12x24 weekday grid has no way to express a date. Weekday afternoons on those eleven days are shown at the peak rate and are actually billed off-peak, which overstates roughly 3% of peak hours.
THE STANDARD RESIDENTIAL RATE since 1 January 2024. A Long Island household that has made no choice is on this one, which is why it is encoded first: rate 180 below is the OPTIONAL flat alternative, the reverse of the usual arrangement where the flat rate is the default.
PEAK IS FOUR HOURS ON WEEKDAYS: 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM Monday through Friday. Everything else, including all weekend hours, is off-peak. The weekday and weekend grids differ for that reason - one grid would bill Saturday afternoon at peak.
THE SUPPLY CHARGE IS TIME-OF-USE TOO, and that is the part most easily missed. Rate 194 pays 195.05% of the Power Supply Charge in summer peak hours and 83.00% off-peak, so the supply component alone ranges from 11.861c to 30.496c/kWh. Applying the headline 14.2906c to every hour would understate peak by 16.2c/kWh.
