AI Energy Transparency
Meade County Local runs Greenwave, our AI assistant, on local hardware in Brandenburg, Kentucky — not in a corporate data center. To stay accountable to the community we power-meter every inference call and publish the energy and cost openly. The numbers below come straight from our own server, billed at LG&E residential rates.

How we calculate cost: Power readings are sampled from the server's iDRAC controller for every inference, then converted to kilowatt-hours and multiplied by our effective rate.
- Provider: LG&E
- Base rate: $0.11362 per kWh
- Fuel / environmental adjustment factor: ×1.10
- Effective rate: $0.12498 per kWh
LG&E also charges a flat $0.47 per day fixed service charge that is independent of usage and is not included in the per-inference cost above.
