Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] |
Revenue | Revenue On January 1, 2018, we adopted new revenue guidance in ASU 2014-09 and related amendments. The new revenue guidance requires entities to recognize revenue when control of the promised good or service is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. We applied the new guidance using the modified retrospective method applied to contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of the new revenue guidance resulted in expanded disclosures but otherwise did not have a material impact on our financial statements. New revenue disclosures required by the standard are included below, and in Note 1. See Note 2 for additional information regarding the new accounting standard. Sources of Revenue The following table provides detail of Pinnacle West's consolidated revenue disaggregated by revenue sources (dollars in thousands):
|  | Year Ended December 31,
|  | 2018
Retail residential electric service |  | $ | 1,867,370 |
Retail non-residential electric service |  | 1,628,891 |
Wholesale energy sales |  | 109,198 |
Transmission services for others |  | 60,261 |
Other sources |  | 25,527 |
Total operating revenues |  | $ | 3,691,247 |
We derive our revenues from contracts with customers primarily from sales of electricity to our regulated retail customers. Our retail electric services and tariff rates are regulated by the ACC. Revenues from wholesale energy sales and transmission services for others represent energy and transmission sales to wholesale customers. Our wholesale activities and tariff rates are regulated by the FERC. Revenue Activities Our revenues are primarily derived from activities that are classified as revenues from contracts with customers. This includes sales of electricity to our regulated retail customers and wholesale and transmission activities. Our revenues from contracts with customers for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $3,644 million. We have certain revenues that do not meet the specific accounting criteria to be classified as revenues from contracts with customers. For the year ended December 31, 2018, our revenues that do not qualify as revenue from contracts with customers were $47 million. This relates primarily to certain regulatory cost recovery mechanisms that are considered alternative revenue programs. We recognize revenue associated with alternative revenue programs when specific events permitting recognition are completed. Certain amounts associated with alternative revenue programs will subsequently be billed to customers; however, we do not reclassify billed amounts into revenue from contracts with customers. See Note 3 for a discussion of our regulatory cost recovery mechanisms. Contract Assets and Liabilities from Contracts with Customers There were no material contract assets, contract liabilities, or deferred contract costs recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2018.
