Rate Schedules & Tariff Analysis
Entergy New Orleans C&I bills are built from a base rate schedule (selected by demand and voltage) plus a stack of monthly riders. The riders — especially the Fuel Adjustment Clause (FAC-8), Purchased Power Cost Recovery (PPCR), and MISO Cost Recovery — drive most month-to-month variability, while the Electric Formula Rate Plan (EFRP-7) governs base-rate adjustments. For larger schedules, demand charges ($/kW based on the 15- or 30-minute peak) are a major cost lever, making load-factor management and peak shaving the highest-impact optimization levers.
Entergy New Orleans Rate Schedule List
| Schedule | Applicability |
|---|---|
| SE-25 Small Electric Service | Small commercial below large-service threshold |
| LE-25 Large Electric Service | Large commercial & industrial |
| LE-HLF-9 High Load Factor | High load factor large customers |
| HV-25 High Voltage Service | High-voltage industrial |
| LIS-14 Large Interruptible | Interruptible industrial load |

Limitations & Considerations
- ⚠No public self-service API; all third-party access requires explicit customer authorization.
- ⚠Residential interval data has no direct CSV/API export from the standard portal — Green Button download or manual capture only.
- ⚠Green Button Connect My Data (automated OAuth API) is not confirmed operational for Entergy New Orleans.
- ⚠DataLink is a fee-based service (Rider DTK-4), not free interval-data access.
- ⚠Building benchmarking data is aggregated and anonymized — individual tenant usage is not visible.
- ⚠Rates are set by the New Orleans City Council and adjusted by multiple riders, so the all-in price is not a single posted number.
Entergy New Orleans Data Access FAQ
How do C&I customers get 15-minute interval data from Entergy New Orleans?▾
Through DataLink, Entergy's Enerwise Energy Manager platform. Request setup through the Business Center (1-800-766-1648 or datalink@entergy.com). DataLink provides 15-minute interval kWh, demand and load-profile analysis, and exports to CSV/Excel plus a JSON/GraphQL API. It is a fee-based service governed by Rider DTK-4, with 24+ months of historical data retained.
Can a third-party consultant or aggregator access our usage data?▾
Yes, with written customer authorization. For interval data, the customer authorizes the consultant for role-based DataLink access (Viewer/Report Generator). For billing, Entergy's Third Party Notification program sends bill copies to a designated address. For multitenant buildings, benchmarking access is granted via ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager. There is no public self-service API; access always requires customer consent.
Does Entergy New Orleans support EDI for automated billing?▾
Yes. Entergy New Orleans has supported EDI since 1997 for commercial, industrial, and governmental accounts using ANSI X12 4010, including the 810 invoice, 820 payment/remittance, and 997 acknowledgment transaction sets. Enroll via the Business Center; setup requires trading-partner registration and parallel testing before going live.
Who regulates Entergy New Orleans rates?▾
The New Orleans City Council, not the Louisiana Public Service Commission, holds exclusive regulatory authority over Entergy New Orleans. The Council approves all tariff schedules and riders. There is no retail electric choice in Orleans Parish, so all C&I customers take bundled service under Council-approved rates.
Which rate schedule applies to a commercial or industrial site?▾
It depends on demand and voltage. Small commercial typically takes Small Electric Service (SE-25); larger loads take Large Electric Service (LE-25) or the High Load Factor variant (LE-HLF-9); high-voltage and interruptible loads use HV-25 or LIS-14. Bills are adjusted by riders such as the Fuel Adjustment Clause (FAC-8), PPCR, MISO, and the Formula Rate Plan (EFRP-7). Confirm applicability with Entergy.
Is Green Button Connect (automated API) available?▾
Green Button Download My Data is operational for downloading ESPI XML/CSV files. Automated Green Button Connect My Data (OAuth API) for Entergy New Orleans is not confirmed as fully operational; for ongoing automated C&I data, DataLink is the recommended path today.
