• Time-of-use pricing. CPS Energy does not report a residential time-of-use program in its 2025 EIA filing. Ask the utility, because programs change. How time-of-use rates work.
• Rooftop solar and net metering. EIA shows 48,818 residential net-metered systems on the CPS Energy grid in 2025, with 414.4 megawatts of capacity. How net metering works.

Owned and run by a city or town. A city council or utility board usually sets the rates, and state commissions often have limited authority over it.
