Field notes
Visitors can enter a ZIP code and monthly kilowatt-hour use; the page says it matches the ZIP to local utilities and estimates a bill at utility, state, and national rates. The accompanying state table covers all 50 states and D.C., with 2025 average prices, bills, monthly use, preliminary August 2026 rates, and year-over-year changes. Rates are attributed to EIA Form 861, while ZIP matching is attributed to NREL/OpenEI; the site states it is independent, not a government site.
