How to calculate electricity bills hours by hours

Hi,
In SAM, we can view hour-by-hour results for PV-to-grid or home load sharing, presented as graphs or numerical values. My question is: Can we also view the bill calculations hour by hour, in either graphical or numerical form, for a month, week, or year?

Hi Muhammad,

SAM's electricity bill calculator calculates the electricity bill on a monthly basis. Several components of the bill are monthly, such as the fixed monthly charge, demand charges, and net metering credits. SAM does report time series electricity bill data. See the "Electricity Bill Results" topic of Help; the time series outputs are described under "Hourly / n MInute Data": samrepo.nrelcloud.org/help/utility_bill_results.html .

Best regards,
Paul.
