Huntsville Utilities EV L3 DCFC — EV fast-charging electricity cost

Huntsville Utilities EV L3 DCFC is the filed rate schedule ForgeAsset models for DC fast-charging sites in Huntsville Utilities territory in Alabama. Energy prices at 25.5¢/kWh flat; the demand side bills none (energy-only). For one reference Supercharger site held constant across the whole library, that works out to 28.6¢/kWh per dispensed kWh — rank 33 of 86 filed tariffs (1 = least expensive).

Modeled rates

Huntsville Utilities' filed EV fast-charging rate, the TVA-standard design: one flat energy price with no demand charge. The rate folds the trailing-twelve-month TVA fuel adjustment and Alabama's 4% utility gross receipts tax. The TVA fuel rider resets monthly and TVA re-prices each October, so the flat figure is re-derived at every refresh.

What the reference site pays here

Reference site: 8 Tesla V4 stalls at 235 kWh/stall/day (57,183 kWh dispensed per month), a 150kW per-stall demand assumption, the model's default time-of-use mix, and a 12% loss gross-up — identical to the full utility ranking, where this tariff sits at position 33 of 86.

The rest of the Alabama picture

The tariff is one layer. State taxes, incentives, clean-fuels programs, and the charging market shape the remainder — Tesla Supercharger ROI in Alabama covers them, and the US Supercharger Economics Map shows every US Supercharger over utility territories colored by this same effective-cost derivation.
