Average use and average bill are the utility’s commercial sales and revenue divided by its commercial customers and by twelve. The bill is an all-in figure: energy, delivery, demand and fixed charges together. A few very large customers pull both averages up, so most businesses use and pay less than the average.
Residential, commercial and industrial prices at Kissimmee Utility Authority
In 2025 the average commercial price at Kissimmee Utility Authority was 4.3% below the residential figure and 17% above the industrial one. Larger customers take power at a higher voltage and use it more steadily, so at most utilities the average falls from residential to commercial to industrial. Which class an account falls in is the utility’s decision, and the line between commercial and industrial is drawn differently from one utility to the next.

How Kissimmee Utility Authority’s commercial rates are set
Kissimmee Utility Authority is owned by the community it serves. Its rates are set locally, by the city council or a utility board, and in most states the state commission does not set them. A commercial account is billed on a rate schedule, chosen by the size of the account and the voltage it takes power at, and a schedule usually combines a fixed monthly charge, a charge per kWh and, above a certain size, a demand charge on the highest rate of draw in the month. The schedule code is printed on the bill. There is no competitive supply market for ordinary commercial accounts in Florida, so the levers are the schedule, the peak and the amount used.
Meters, time-varying rates and net metering at Kissimmee Utility Authority
EIA counts 12,950 commercial meters at Kissimmee Utility Authority in 2025, and 12,943 of them (more than 99%) are advanced meters (AMI), which record use at least hourly and report it to the utility at least daily. Of the rest, 7 are standard meters. An advanced meter is what makes interval data possible, and interval data is what shows when a building’s peak demand happens.
At Kissimmee Utility Authority, 47 commercial customers were on a time-varying rate in 2025, about 0.4% of its commercial customers. A time-varying rate charges more in some hours than in others, so when a business uses power matters as well as how much. The kinds Kissimmee Utility Authority reports offering commercial customers are time-of-use pricing.
EIA records 77 commercial net-metered generating systems at Kissimmee Utility Authority in 2025, with 3.59 MW of capacity between them: about 6.2 for every 1,000 commercial customers. Net metering credits a customer for power its own system sends to the grid; the terms are in the utility’s tariff.
How reliable is Kissimmee Utility Authority’s electric service?
Kissimmee Utility Authority customers went without power for an average of 23 minutes in 2025, excluding major storms, with about 0.56 interruptions per customer. The average across U.S. utilities reporting the same way is 124 minutes. This utility reports on a different measurement standard, so the comparison is only approximate. These are averages over every customer of every class, so they describe the system and not any one street.
Where Kissimmee Utility Authority serves
EIA records Kissimmee Utility Authority serving customers in 1 Florida county: Osceola. A county can be shared between utilities, so this does not tell you who serves a given address. The utility that serves an address is the one named on its bill.
EIA lists the Florida Municipal Power Pool as its balancing authority, the body that keeps supply and demand matched minute by minute across the area.

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- They are averages over every commercial customer. A utility whose commercial customers are mostly large averages fewer cents per kWh than one serving mostly small shops, so a lower figure can mean larger customers and not a lower rate.
- They are not a rate schedule. None of these figures is a charge printed in Kissimmee Utility Authority’s tariff, and nothing here works out a bill from one. The tariff index lists the utilities whose filed schedules are quoted on this site.
- They are annual and final. EIA publishes utility figures once a year. The Florida page carries the state’s trailing 12 months, which is more recent and still preliminary.
For one building, the cost estimator gives a range by building type, size and state, and price by utility sets every utility side by side. Commercial vs residential vs industrial compares the classes in every state.
