How the calculator gets the total

  1. It finds the season from the billing month. Summer rates apply in June to September. The rates for other months apply in October to May.
  2. It adds the customer charge. This is a fixed amount for each month.
  3. It applies the rate of each tier of the energy delivery charge to the kWh in that tier.
  4. It multiplies the kWh by the rate of each of the 9 riders in the riders table, from the monthly adjustment clause (MAC) to the arrears management program recovery surcharge.
  5. It adds the gross receipts tax increase (delivery) as a percentage of the total of the lines above.
  6. It multiplies the kWh by the supply price that you type from your bill. If you type other supply charges for the month, it adds them.

The calculator rounds each line to the cent. Each percentage uses the rounded lines.

Items that the calculator does not include

  • The supply charges, except the supply price that you type.
  • Sales tax.
  • EAP and other low-income discounts.
  • Time-of-day rates (Rate II and Rate III) and the demand-based Rate IV.

Delivery values read from the text of Con Edison's P.S.C. No. 10 electric tariff (Leaf 388, Rate I) and the latest Statement for each adjustment that General Rule 26 lists, as linked from Con Edison's P.S.C. No. 10 page. Con Edison's market supply charge follows hourly NYISO prices and is different on each bill, so the calculator asks for the supply price from your bill. The gross receipts tax increase is applied to the delivery charges; the supply charges on your bill already include their own tax increase. The billing and payment processing charge applies only to some retail access customers and is not shown. Con Edison's average bill charts are annual averages for past years, so they are not used as a check. The test bills are hand calculations. Con Edison P.S.C. No. 10 statements.

The most common reason is more kWh: heating and air conditioning use much electricity. The season: on Schedule SC 1 Rate I, 1,000 kWh costs $231.87 in September and $212.54 in November. The tiers: the kWh above the first tier cost more, so a month with more kWh has a higher average price. A rate change: Con Edison changed its rates on November 1, 2026. More days in the billing period also add kWh and daily charges.

Why is my bill different from the result?
