Average energy usage; House, Apartment, or Mobile Home. 3 blog series: Residential Electricity
Residential Electricity, in this blog we’ll talk about the average energy usage; about the average usage in KWh.
In previous blogs, I explained how to see how much electricity you use a month. The next question is; am I using what I should or if my consumption sky-high?
To see if you are using the correct average energy usage in your home, you can use a simple formula, it is very easy, is to multiply the square footage by 1.2 (900sq ft * 1.2) = $ 100.8. This would be the normal average cost, but not 100% accurate, we all use electricity differently.
Now, you already know the square footage in your home, whether it is a house, apartment, or mobile home. Now that you made your formula, if you are below average, I congratulate you, and if it is above, do not worry, I’m going to help you to lower your average energy usage.
Your average energy usage is very important, we often think that the power company is robbing us, but we are the ones consuming too much energy, too many kWh.
Let’s be realistic, and speak the truth, how many times comes to the electric bill and throw a tantrum and complain about it? We never do or prepare a plan to save more energy. Sometimes we compare ourselves with our neighbors or relatives, but it is not possible to compare neighbors or relatives, all homes are different, and different energy consumption and everything affects our power consumption, from what time you wash your clothes at home to how long are your hot showers.
Knowing our daily energy usage is key to saving money
Each family has a different lifestyle, and because of this, we will never use the same amount of kWh that our neighbors or relatives.
Is not that the electricity companies want to steal from you or get rich, know this, energy is very expensive and for this very reason, we must learn to use less energy.
On the other hand, and without changing the subject, let me say that sometimes the energy is imported from other countries. Let us continue on that matter. Residential Electricity.
Once we know the average usage in our home, we must do everything possible to keep it that way, no matter what happens. We can make small changes that will make a great impact on your electricity bill.
In my next blog, I will give you the best tips that will save you energy and money in your home. I know that at the beginning it will be difficult to follow these tips, however, we cannot spend our entire life complaining about our electricity bill without doing something about it. This is not the main reason for my series of blogs. I get frustrated because I have customers calling me every day asking to explain their electric bill, I let them know about their consumption and they do nothing about it, which I think is throwing money away.
