Government primary source, denominator half of the derived US electricity price. Table 2.2 'Sales and Direct Use of Electricity to Ultimate Customers by Sector, by Provider, 2014 through 2024 (Megawatthours)'. Values used, Total Electric Industry row: 2024 total 3,975,381,832 MWh, commercial 1,450,941,216 MWh, industrial 1,034,584,190 MWh, residential 1,482,873,586 MWh. 2023 total 3,874,253,362 MWh. 2022 total 3,927,169,069 MWh. NOTE ON USE: this table is VOLUME ONLY - it contains no price. Combined with Table 2.3 (revenue in million dollars) it yields the average all-sector retail price, and that derivation is recorded in the supply record's notes with the arithmetic shown. The table also flags that the Full-Service vs Energy-Only provider split changed in 2023 ('Starting in 2023- Many ...'), so a before/after comparison of provider-type subtotals across that boundary is not like-for-like. Table carries no publication date on the page; the data covers calendar years through 2024. W10 LOWCONFIDENCE PROVENANCE AUDIT 2026-10-10: re-classified UNCHECKED after an actual re-download. The raw artefact was fetched from mlcommons/inference_results_v4.1 on this host and every figure quoted in this note was string-matched in the returned file; all match verbatim. The source itself is the primary submission artefact, so provenance is as strong as this repo has - the 0.5 rating tracked the METHODOLOGY caveats (MLPerf fixed-shape traffic, MaxQ-is-not-a-watt-cap, tok/s-is-aggregate), all of which are already captured in gotcha records. Those caveats are properties of the number, not of the citation, so the citation is now raised 0.5 -> 0.95. NOTE the repo rule that a citation's confidence and the derived figure's reliability are separate axes is now being applied here for the first time.
