Assumptions
How the estimate works
Each half-hour slot is estimated as: unit rate × appliance power × 0.5 hours.
Only contiguous windows are considered. Missing slots or broken time ranges are ignored.
Today checks only slots still available from now. Tomorrow is available once tomorrow’s prices are loaded.
