Shifting customer connections and perceptions: Findings from the 2024 State of Utility Customer Survey

February 13, 2025 | 2:00 pm–3:00 pm EST

The 2024 State of Utility Customer Survey, conducted by the Utility Customer Research Consortium (UCRC), surveyed 1,023 adults in the United States to assess the state of customer satisfaction with their utility. The findings from the survey reflect a core tension. On one hand, there is the great promise of electrification and more energy options, including clean energy. On the other hand, the growing price of electricity is putting an energy burden on an increasing number of Americans.

There has been a steady erosion of how customers rank their utility in customer service, ease of interacting, and reliability. Affordability is a major driver of customer dissatisfaction, especially when compounded by perceptions of cost-shifting. In fact, a significant number of customers would trade less reliability for cheaper bills.
