Yesterday Morning we woke up and the temperature was 20 degrees F. The temperature remained in the 20's all day, this morning it was 11 degrees F. I decided to see how much energy our home would use under these conditions. Our home is about 2100 square feet, all electric (heat pump, water heater, oven, etc.). We had three meals at home, washed dishes, clothes, computers, TV, all the normal things. The electrical meter reading was 18423 at 8:47 am on Saturday January 2, and it read 18550 at 9:00 am on Sunday January 3. Difference is 127 kW hours. Our electricity costs 8 cents per KW Hr, or $10.16 for the 127 kW-Hrs to run our home for the last 24 hours.
