The solid black line is the energy charge — a flat per-kWh rate your REP locks in for the contract term, the same at any usage level. Dashed lines are the total rate PowerToChoose shows at 500 / 1,000 / 2,000 kWh, which also includes TDU delivery charges (set by your utility, not your REP) and varies with usage because of fixed base charges and bill credits. The gap between black and dashed is what your utility and plan structure add on top of the contracted rate. Click any series in the legend to hide it. More on the difference →

Rates appear at 500, 1,000, and 2,000 kWh of monthly usage because plans with fixed base charges or bill credits can price very differently at different tiers. The 1,000 kWh column is what most comparison sites rank on — see the FAQ for why that is often misleading.
