## How to call it through Zero

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a current, pre-ranked snapshot of US electricity prices across all states for a specific sector, including trend data (12-month change) and national benchmarking. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured, comparable numeric data ready for analysis or display.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid sector value — must be one of: residential, commercial, industrial, all
- Invalid or unrecognized state abbreviation causes the state to be ignored or returns an error
- Data may be delayed by up to one month as it reflects the latest published EIA data
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient

## Output

A ranked list of all US states with their electricity price in cents per kWh for the selected sector (residential, commercial, industrial, or all), the 12-month price change for each state, and the US national average price. States are ordered cheapest first. One state can optionally be highlighted.
