The story
NERC published September energy caps for distribution companies. The records concern estimated billing caps, not one nationwide flat tariff.
Why it matters
Households and small firms can compare the correct distributor record with their meter status and bill.
The practical question is how this record relates to local costs, demand or service reliability. National totals and forecasts can conceal differences between regions, sectors and businesses. Keep the measurement period and any revisions in view before using the headline to explain conditions at a particular place.
