How to grade your bill in 30 seconds

Find two numbers on your bill. Type them in. See your grade. That's it.

1

Open your latest bill

Paper, email PDF, or your provider's app — any current statement works. Set it next to you (or open it in another window).

Provider's app

Any of these. Doesn't matter which.

2

Find the total amount due

Usually near the top of the bill, in bold. Look for the label.

★ YOUR ELECTRIC COMPANY
Statement · Apr 12 – May 11
Total amount due $187.42
Due by Jun 03, 2026
Account #: ••••••3847

👉 What you'll see

A label like "Total amount due", "Amount due by [date]", or just "Total". The dollar amount next to it is what you'll type into the tool.

3

Find your kWh used

Scroll to the usage section. Different label, same idea — how much electricity you used this month.

Usage Summary
Total energy used (kWh) 1,234
Meter reading start53,217
Meter reading end54,451

👉 What you'll see

A label like "Total energy used", "kWh used this period", or "Total kWh". The number next to it (usually 500–3,000) is what you'll type in.

4

Type both into the tool

Open the Bill Grade tool, enter your ZIP, then the two numbers. Press the green button.
