Roanoke Electric Member Corp · NC
When are Roanoke Electric Member’s peak hours?
Roanoke Electric Member’s peak hours are 6am–9am, November–April; 2pm–6pm, May–October. Everything outside those hours is off-peak.
At peak, Residential Service - Time of Day charges 53.8¢ a kWh; off-peak it is 9.0¢ — 6.0× apart. Prices from the filed tariff.
These hours only apply if you are on a time-of-use plan. Roanoke Electric Member’s default plan, Residential Service, charges one rate at every hour of the day. A household that never switched has no peak hours to avoid — and no cheap hours to use.

Peak and off-peak are the highest and lowest energy prices on each plan; some plans add a shoulder price between them. Fixed monthly charges are not included here — they are on each plan’s page.
What is it worth to move a load out of peak?
On Residential Service - Time of Day, every kilowatt-hour a day you move from 6am to midnight is worth about $164 a year in the month the gap is widest. An electric car charging 10 kWh a night, or a water heater on a timer, is the kind of load that actually moves.

Hours and prices are read from the tariff Roanoke Electric Member filed with its regulator, as published in the NREL Utility Rate Database, and drawn the same way on every plan page. If your plan is not listed here, either it has no hourly pricing or its filing is too old or too partial for us to price honestly — we leave those out rather than guess.
