Medium Home scenario vs benchmark in Texas
This scenario uses 1,200 kWh/month for the medium home profile and is computed from published EIA rate data; it excludes delivery fees, taxes, and fixed utility charges.

Moderate-to-higher whole-home usage from larger floor area and longer HVAC operation.
High cooling or winter electric heating can move usage above the modeled range.
