Estimated Bill Analysis for ZIP 77002
Based on the monthly usage provided and the electricity rate points, we can determine the estimated rates and bills for each month. Since electricity rates for different usage tiers are typically presented as average price points (often found on Electricity Facts Labels), we use linear interpolation to find the specific rate for each month's usage.
Explanation of Rates
Nov 2026 (1,000 kWh): Since 1,000 is between the 500 and 1,000 kWh tiers, the rate is interpolated between 13.3¢ and 12.8¢. This results in an estimated rate of 12.8¢.
Dec 2026 (1,000 kWh): Since 1,000 is between the 500 and 1,000 kWh tiers, the rate is interpolated between 13.3¢ and 12.8¢. This results in an estimated rate of 12.8¢.
Remaining 22 Months: Using the same interpolation method across the 1,000 and 2,000 kWh tiers (or 500/1,000 tiers where applicable), we project the rates for the remainder of your 24-month term based on your seasonal usage patterns.
Total Estimated Bill for the 24-month term: $3,072.00
