Each state in Sighten EverBright has a default utility rate escalator that will automatically apply to any job quoted in the respective state. Sighten EverBright utilizes data from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) to determine the default by State.
We used the report Average Price by State by Provider (EIA-861), and considered the residential price for the total electric industry. This contained data from 1990-2019. | |
