They say the average house hold uses 750 kWh. I don't know anyone who uses that little. I suspect that is based upon those living in an apartment.
Monthly ? We are usually between 500-600kWh…..typical 4 person household…2 fridges, one freezer, dishwasher…..?Quote:

I wish, them in power address once the water /waste water extortion pricing.
I must be frugal but not Scottish. This is my monthly average, a bit more in the winter when I plug the truck in. The wife and I, Gas heat and water heater, dryer, BBQ and garage heater.
Summary
Most recent 30 days:
Oct 3, 2022 - Nov 1, 2022
Total usage: 270.9426 kWh
Total Electricity cost: $28.73
Just heard that rates are going to decrease a bit. It may be a thing to look at the Tier 1 and 2 rates for those who use less than 1000kw per month in winter and less than 600kw per month in summer.
At the Tier 1 rate, I would save about another $3. a month and I wouldn't have to limit running the dishwasher after 7pm, same with doing laundry on off hours or weekends.
Wow I don't know a single person under 900 and most of my friends are single.
I think the biggest electron suckers would be electric heat, clothes dryer and oven. I converted my counter top to induction about 10 years ago too, much faster.
