How it's calculated
The Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) bills electricity every month, one block at a time: up to 6,000 kWh at the lower rate for your account type, and every kWh above that at the higher rate. Government accounts pay a single rate.
- Consumption: the kWh in each block × its rate in halalas.
- VAT at the standard rate is added to the electricity charges.
Water is billed separately by the National Water Company. The rates below come from SEC's published tariff, which could not be checked directly, so compare the estimate with your bill. New rates and a fixed monthly fee take effect on 1 January 2027; this calculator will be updated when they start.
