Appliance Calculator

The Appliance Calculator is a fast, easy-to-use program that gives homeowners insight into the amount and cost of electricity associated with common appliances. Use this information to help manage your energy costs. For more information on energy saving ideas, see Appliance Tips.

Simply pick an appliance and insert your approximate usage figures. Click the 'Add' button to keep a running total.

Please be aware that your actual costs may vary.

"Note: In addition to 5.5 and 6.4 cents per kWh that homeowners pay for electricity, other billed charges like transmission and local distribution of electricity also vary with consumption. We recommend that 10.0 cents per kWh be used to calculate a more true cost of appliance use, and the savings potential of energy that you conserve."
