How to read it
- Prices are in dollars of the day, not adjusted for inflation.
- A weekly change compares the latest week with the week before and the week nearest a year earlier.
- Electricity figures cover the past 12 months. A single month would mostly show the weather. "Since 2019" compares them with the 2019 average.
- The average price is revenue over kilowatt-hours sold, so it includes fixed charges. The average bill is revenue over customers.
- Red means a price went up, green that it went down.
