At Entergy Louisiana, affordability isn’t just something we aim for, it’s something we deliver every day. As everyday expenses continue to rise, we remain focused on minimizing the impact of inflation on our customers’ bills. We’re proud to say our rates were about 33% below the national average last year and have consistently been among the lowest in the state for the last 15 years — a difference that helps individuals, families and businesses stretch their budgets further while supporting social equity, economic resilience, and sustainable growth across Louisiana.
Electricity is essential to our daily lives. It provides light, runs heating and cooling systems and ensures everyday appliances like refrigerators work. It protects our homes and communities by supporting security systems and keeping critical infrastructure reliable. Electricity keeps our food fresh and helps get groceries from farms to our tables. It drives innovation by enabling new technologies and smarter systems. Hospitals and clinics rely on it to operate life-saving equipment like ventilators and MRI machines. It is also the backbone of modern communication, powering smartphones, computers, the internet and media, that connect people across the globe. When energy bills stay manageable, individuals and families can put their money toward other important needs like groceries, housing, education and savings for the future without having to choose between essential needs.
Affordable power is just as important for small businesses as it is for individuals and families. When energy costs stay low, shop owners, restaurants and local service providers can keep their prices steady for customers, hire more workers and put more money back into their businesses. That means they can upgrade their equipment, expand their services, and offer better wages and benefits to their employees. These investments strengthen communities and create new opportunities that benefit everyone.
And while we work hard to keep rates low today, we’re also investing in the future to protect long-term affordability. By making smart, cost-effective investments in renewable energy and advanced technologies, we ensure that keeping power affordable never comes at the expense of reliability or environmental responsibility. These forward-looking steps help keep electricity dependable and costs stable, so individuals, families and businesses can count on affordable energy for years to come.
