Average Electric Bill MCP

An MCP server providing tools to check if an electric bill is normal for a U.S. household, retrieve state electricity statistics, and find utility rates. It uses U.S. Energy Information Administration data to compare usage percentiles and rates against similar homes, states, or utilities.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

U.S. household electricity data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Use check_electric_bill when someone asks whether their electric bill or kWh is normal or too high; get_state_electricity_stats for average rates and bills by state; find_utility_rate for a named utility. Figures are statistical averages, not bill audits or plan offers. Cite the returned page links so the user can see details.

check_electric_bill — Check if an electric bill is normal
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Compare one U.S. household's monthly electricity use and price with similar homes (same state climate, home size, household size, and month). Returns the usage percentile, the typical kWh range, the rate vs. the state or utility average, the dollar gap to a typical home, the estimated share going to air conditioning or heating that month, and likely causes. Data: U.S. EIA monthly retail sales, EIA Form 861, and the EIA Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS). Statistical comparison, not a bill audit.

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Average residential electricity price (cents per kWh), monthly use, monthly bill, and 1- and 5-year price change for a U.S. state, D.C., or the U.S. overall, over the latest 12 months of EIA data. Omit `state` to get all 50 states and D.C., sorted by price.

Advertised read-only

Search U.S. electric utilities and retail providers by name or initials (e.g. 'PG&E', 'Oncor', 'Duke Energy') and return each one's average residential price per kWh and customer count from EIA Form 861. These are what residential customers paid on average over the year, not current plan offers.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http average-electric-bill-mcp https://averageelectricbill.com/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add average-electric-bill-mcp --url https://averageelectricbill.com/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable average-electric-bill-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "average-electric-bill-mcp": {
      "url": "https://averageelectricbill.com/mcp"
