Scenario range
One city, three plausible setups
These are sensitivity scenarios—not a confidence interval. The reference setup is the ranking standard.
| Setup | Annual energy | Monthly average | Annual cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Efficient insulated | 570 kWh | $8/mo | $91/yr |
| Reference consumer setup | 1,108 kWh | $15/mo | $176/yr |
| Lightly insulated / exposed | 1,956 kWh | $26/mo | $311/yr |
What colder targets change
Lower settings increase positive temperature degree-hours and chiller runtime. The same reference configuration is held constant.
| Target | Reference cost |
|---|---|
| 55°F | $164/year |
| 50°F | $176/year |
| 45°F | $190/year |
| 39°F | $209/year |

Monthly climate and cost profile
Daily low/high normals become positive cooling degree-hours; provisional pages use approximate profiles until NOAA retrieval succeeds.
