Modeled rates

Delaware Electric Cooperative's large commercial rate for rural Kent and Sussex counties: flat energy and an unconditional per-kilowatt demand charge — no ratchet, no window, no seasons — the simplest structure of the library's two Delaware rows. Figures fold Delaware's 4.25% public utility tax. The cooperative's board can adjust rates at any meeting, and the library re-checks the posted tariff quarterly.
