SRP Time-of-Use Price Plan

This is one of SRP's Time-of-Day plans, which prices energy higher during on-peak hours. All other off-peak hours are lower-priced.

What are "on-peak" hours? They are times of the day when it costs SRP more to produce electricity because of high demand. That is why customers who shift their energy usage to "off-peak" times are rewarded with lower prices during those hours.

How it works

On the SRP Time-of-Use™ plan:

  • Higher energy prices are charged for up to eight hours Monday through Friday
  • All other off-peak hours are priced lower than SRP's Basic price plan
  • Customers on this plan save an average of 6%-7% annually by shifting some energy use to off-peak hours
