Formula Used

The electricity consumption cost is calculated using the following formula:

Electricity Cost = (kWh × Rate per kWh) + Fixed Monthly Charge

Where:

  • kWh = kilowatt-hours used

  • Fixed Monthly Charge = standard monthly fee (varies by tariff)

Note: Rates are approximate and may vary based on your specific contract and season. Always check with your electricity provider for exact rates.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the cost for a residential customer using 300 kWh in a month:

Electricity Cost = (300 × 0.15) + 10 Electricity Cost = 45 + 10 Electricity Cost = €55

This example shows a monthly cost of €55 for 300 kWh of electricity.
