Minnesota Electric Rate Proposal

At Xcel Energy, we work hard every day to provide the energy that our customers depend on. We’re proud to be one of the country’s largest electric utilities, serving nearly 1.5 million customers in Minnesota with affordable, reliable electricity.

On Nov. 1, 2024, Xcel Energy proposed new electric rates for Minnesota customers to begin in 2025 and 2026. Our rate proposal supports our commitment to provide reliable, safe, and clean electric service to our customers by funding investments in:

  • Enhanced reliability and resiliency of the system that serves customers.
  • Clean energy projects that lock in fuel savings for customers.
  • Our carbon-free nuclear plants that are key to meeting our clean energy goals.
  • Preparing the system for expected growth of electricity use.
  • Improvements for a better customer experience.

Always call 811 before digging in your yard to avoid hitting buried gas or electric lines. Not only is it the safe thing to do, but it's the law.
