Bill Guide

The Bill Guide is a unified dashboard of billing insights that helps customers better understand their most recent bill and upcoming bill. It includes a Most Recent Bill section, which displays a bill breakdown, weather insight, neighbor comparison, top end-use categories, and an energy efficiency tip. It also includes an Upcoming Bill section, which displays a forecast, an energy efficiency tip, and an insight about the weather in the bill period so far, as well as an insight about the remainder of the bill period.

Note: Bill Guide is embedded as a single widget rather than as multiple separate widgets. Utilities must be on the latest technical framework for widgets in order to embed it.

Embedding Guidelines

Widget Name: widget-bill-guide

  • Bill Guide is best suited for a prominent location on your website, since it presents a unified dashboard of key billing insights and has links to many other smaller widgets within it. It is recommended that you place it in a primary or top-level section on your website, such as the first among your tabs or pages related to energy efficiency.
  • Bill Guide contains multiple components and insights. To keep the amount of information manageable for end users, consider embedding it on its own page rather than on the same page as another widget.
