PUCO's Duke Energy electricity historical chart prints one row for each month, even when the rate does not change.
Where do the numbers for Duke Energy Ohio come from?
Each rate was read from PUCO's Duke Energy electricity historical chart. The newest two periods came from PUCO's Energy Choice Ohio chart. We entered each figure by hand, checked it against a second read of the page, and last read the charts on October 1, 2026.
PUCO prints electric rates in dollars per kWh. We multiply by 100 to show cents, which changes only the unit, and keep each cell's original text in our data.
Are there gaps or odd dates in the record for Duke Energy Ohio?
PUCO's printed dates leave 1 day between July 1 – July 30, 2022 and August 1 – August 31, 2022. We leave this gap as PUCO prints it. For one period, PUCO printed an end date that was unusable or overlapped the next period. We ended it the day before the next period starts: September 1 – September 30, 2022.
PUCO's May 4, 2023 news release lists a figure for June 1 – June 30, 2023 that matches after rounding. PUCO says the figures in that release reflect tariffs as filed and are subject to Commission authorization.
How does the history of Duke Energy Ohio rates help when you compare offers?
This record shows how far and how often the default has moved. It does not give the next rate. The newest period, October 1 – October 31, 2026, is the one in force today.
Today's figure and the next reset are on our Duke Energy Ohio price to compare page. PUCO's historical chart says historic rates "are not indicative of future market conditions or prices."
The Duke Energy Ohio Apples to Apples chart lists current offers, our offer checker shows what a supplier's monthly fee adds to the rate per kWh, and energy choice in Ohio explains switching. Staying on the default can be the better choice when every fixed offer is above it, when fees erase the gap, or when you may move before a fixed term ends and would owe its early termination fee.
We are a broker. Suppliers pay us a commission when a household enrolls, and we also charge a service fee. There's no cost to check, and you see the fee terms in your offer.

Frequently asked questions
How many rate periods does this history hold for Duke Energy Ohio?
The record holds 58 dated periods, from January 1, 2022 through October 31, 2026. The count grows when we add a row after PUCO publishes a new period. The table on this page lists every period, newest first, with a link to the PUCO page it came from.
What was the highest price to compare for Duke Energy Ohio in this record?
The highest rate in this record was 10.70¢ per kWh (June 1 – June 30, 2026). The lowest was 5.43¢ per kWh (April 1 – April 30, 2022), reached again in one later period. These are the extremes of the 58 periods we hold, not of every rate PUCO has ever published.
Why does the table for Duke Energy Ohio repeat a rate month after month?
PUCO prints one row for each month, even when the rate stays put. The Duke Energy Ohio rate held for as many as six months in a row, from October 2024 to March 2025. We keep PUCO's monthly rows as printed instead of merging them.
Does the history for Duke Energy Ohio predict the next rate?
No. PUCO's own chart says historic rates are not indicative of future market conditions or prices. A record of past periods shows how the default has moved. It does not forecast the next period, and it is not an offer. Check PUCO's chart for the rate in force before you compare.
Does the record for Duke Energy Ohio include PUCO's periods before January 2022?
No. We enter periods from January 1 – January 31, 2022 onward. PUCO's chart also lists earlier periods that we have not entered, so the record is a recent span, not the full list. Within the span, a missing date means PUCO's table has no row, and we never fill one with an estimate.
How can I check a figure for Duke Energy Ohio against PUCO's chart?
Find the row by its dates in PUCO's chart. PUCO prints electric rates in dollars per kWh, so multiply the printed figure by 100 to get the cents shown here. Our figure is PUCO's times 100, rounded to two decimal places where PUCO prints more. The original cell text is kept in our data.
