About AZ Energy Hub
AZ Energy Hub is an independent publisher of Arizona energy calculators and source-checked utility guides. The goal is to make rates, dates, formulas, and limitations visible enough that a homeowner can challenge the math before acting.

What we publish
The published core is deliberately narrow: seven calculators covering APS and SRP bills, APS solar and battery scenarios, EV charging, pool pumps, and user-measured backup loads, plus three APS/SRP schedule and demand guides. Routes outside that reviewed set are retired rather than left online behind a search or navigation filter.
Current structures
Seasonal tiers are modeled instead of flattened into one headline rate.
Visible sources
Core pages link to the utility or agency document behind each material claim.
No sales funnel
No affiliate links, installer leads, sponsored rankings, or paid placements.
Methodology
- Utility prices: calculations are tied to a named tariff or ratebook, not a generic utility average. The source ledger records each effective period and check date.
- Solar production: the solar tool requires a documented annual value from a current PVWatts result, installer design, or measured system data. It sends no calculator inputs to NLR and does not substitute a fallback average.
- Incentives: solar and battery worksheets insert no automatic federal, Arizona, utility, or product incentive. Users can enter an amount only after verifying their own eligibility; current IRS timing is linked for federal context.
- Battery programs: APS Storage Rewards is modeled as $110 times seasonal average delivered kW—not as a purchase rebate or guaranteed per-event payment.
- Limitations: base-rate tools state when adjustors, taxes, fees, financing, interval data, or account-specific charges are excluded.
How the site makes money
Display advertising is the intended business model, but ad serving is disabled during this recovery review. AZ Energy Hub does not use affiliate links, earn product commissions, sell homeowner leads, accept paid rankings, or publish sponsored placements. Advertising eligibility never changes calculator output.
Primary-source record
The source ledger records the owner, document type, effective period, check date, status, and affected routes for every material source used by the current publication set.
Corrections
Utility rates and programs change. If a calculator does not match a current official document or a bill you received, email contact@azenergyhub.comwith the plan name, date, and source. Corrections to material rate, program, tax, safety, or calculation claims are prioritized.
Disclaimer
All results are estimates, not financial, tax, legal, engineering, or utility advice. Confirm your rate plan, tax situation, equipment eligibility, interval usage, installer scope, and contract terms with qualified professionals before acting.
