Large Home scenario vs benchmark in Missouri
This scenario uses 1,600 kWh/month for the large home profile, modeled as a two-part bill: Ameren Missouri's $9.19/month fixed charge plus 12.99¢/kWh for usage. The split is anchored to the EIA all-in average rate, so at 900 kWh it matches the statewide benchmark exactly; away from it, the fixed charge stays fixed the way real bills work. Locally billed taxes vary by area.
Scenario assumptions and variability
Higher household electricity demand from larger conditioned area and greater appliance intensity.
Pool pumps, EV charging, and intensive cooling can materially increase monthly usage.
Methodology and disclosure
Profile scenario pages are available for a limited set of state-and-profile combinations. The state estimator index remains the starting point for most visitors. Today we publish 204 profile pages across 51 states.
Estimates here are planning scenarios, not utility quotes. Calculations use the EIA all-in average residential rate — delivery, fixed monthly fees, and utility charges are already inside it; locally billed taxes vary by area.
Because this profile's usage differs from the 900 kWh benchmark, the estimate is modeled as a two-part bill: Ameren Missouri's $9.19 fixed monthly charge (from our itemized fee breakdown) plus 12.99¢/kWh for usage. This keeps low-usage estimates from understating the bill and high-usage estimates from overstating it, while matching the statewide benchmark exactly at 900 kWh.
For benchmark intent, use average bill pages. For broader interactive intent, use state calculator pages.
Frequently asked questions
What monthly usage does the large home profile assume?
This profile uses 1,600 kWh per month with a reference range of 1,300-2,100 kWh.
Are these Missouri bill estimates utility quotes?
No. These are scenario estimates for planning. The all-in rate already includes delivery (T&D), fixed charges, and utility fees; locally billed taxes vary by area.
How is the Missouri estimate calculated?
As a two-part bill, the way utilities actually charge: Ameren Missouri's $9.19 fixed monthly charge plus 12.99¢ per kWh of usage. The split is anchored to the EIA all-in average rate, so at 900 kWh it matches the statewide benchmark exactly.

Source & Method
Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) Retail Sales of Electricity. Updated: April 2026. Estimates use the EIA all-in average residential rate — energy, delivery, fixed charges, and utility fees together, not just the electricity itself. Fees are inside the rate, not an extra on top; how your own bill splits fixed versus per-kWh charges varies by utility.
