APS Time-of-Use Rate Plans

APS time-of-use rate schedules and peak hours. Compare TOU plans and learn when electricity costs the most and least.

Peak & Off-Peak Hours

APS's time-of-use rates divide the day into peak (highest cost), mid-peak, and off-peak (lowest cost) periods. Peak hours are typically weekday afternoons when demand is highest. Off-peak hours are nights, early mornings, weekends, and holidays when demand drops.

Available TOU Plans

APS may offer multiple TOU plan options with different peak/off-peak hour definitions and rate differentials. Some plans have a larger spread between peak and off-peak rates, offering more savings potential for customers who can shift their usage. Compare plans based on your typical daily schedule.

Maximizing TOU Savings

Shift laundry, dishwashing, and EV charging to off-peak hours. Pre-cool your home before peak hours begin. Use a smart thermostat to automate temperature adjustments around peak periods. Customers who shift 50%+ of usage to off-peak hours typically save 15-25% compared to flat-rate plans.
