Changing energy calculation settings
Energy estimation shown on the homepage of the portal and in the entire platform is calculated by the product of the number of units i.e electricity used and the cost of each unit.
Since this cost can vary in different places or even during different schemes of the electricity board, the admin can change the cost per unit as per convenience.
