Eligibility / billing boundary: Filed A80/A81 base energy charges are modeled. Fuel Clause, Resource Adjustment riders, local surcharges and monthly EV Home Service customer/program charges are not folded into the period prices.

The state average is a benchmark, not a substitute for this tariff. A low or high encoded period is a marginal energy price and should not be interpreted as a complete monthly bill unless the page explicitly says whole-bill modeling is supported.
