Formula Used

The calculation is based on the simple formula:

Where:

• Total Electricity Cost is the amount you paid for electricity
• Cost per kWh is the rate charged per kilowatt-hour

This formula provides a direct measure of your electricity usage in kilowatt-hours.

Worked Example

Let's say you paid $120 for electricity this month, and your electricity provider charges $0.15 per kWh. Here's how to calculate your kWh consumption:

This means you used 800 kilowatt-hours of electricity this month.

Interpreting Results

The kWh consumption result gives you a clear measure of your electricity usage. Here's what it means:

• Higher kWh usage indicates greater energy consumption, which may correspond to higher electricity bills
• Lower kWh usage suggests more efficient energy use, which can lead to cost savings
• Comparing kWh consumption over time can help identify trends and opportunities for energy savings

Use this information to make informed decisions about your energy usage and consider energy-saving measures if your consumption is high.
