Benchmark methodology and intent boundary
City configured reference rate when available; still an estimate for comparison context. This route is benchmark-bill intent only and stays distinct from calculator and city-authority intent families.
How to read this city benchmark bill
This benchmark applies the city electricity-rate estimate to a standard 900 kWh monthly profile so cities can be compared on a consistent basis.
It is not a utility quote and not a custom calculator flow. For scenario changes, use the state calculator route; for local electricity-cost authority context, use the city electricity-cost route.
Intent separation guardrails
- State bill benchmark route remains the state-level owner for benchmark bill intent.
- City authority route remains the owner for city electricity-cost context intent.
- Calculator route remains the owner for custom scenario calculator intent.
