Estimated for a typical home from Grayson County weather (NOAA climate normals 1991–2020) and how Texas homes use electricity as the weather changes (U.S. EIA). The model is not a city meter reading or a prediction for your home. Prices are interpolated between the published 500/1,000/2,000 kWh points; outside that range the nearest endpoint is used. Each benchmark point can come from a different plan, so the annual total is not an available annual contract price. Taxes, future rate changes and exact EFL fee thresholds are not modeled.
