US Energy Price Monitor is a data project from Kadoa that publishes electricity price statistics for American households. Its electricity section breaks average residential rates down by utility ownership type—investor-owned, public, and cooperative—and tracks how those prices have moved since 2015, with a headline finding that investor-owned utilities charged 23% more per kilowatt-hour than public ones in 2025.
The core of the site is a set of interactive charts and tables. Users can switch between viewing change since 2020 and cents per kilowatt-hour, and the data table lists yearly averages alongside inflation, plus estimated monthly bills for each ownership category. Tabular data can be downloaded, and the site also covers fuel prices and rate cases as separate sections.
