With the ever rising cost of energy, there has never been a better time to get wise to the cost of running appliances and devices in your home.
Download and use this spreadsheet to calculate what savings you can make by powering off some devices and appliances when not in use.
This spreadsheet will display the running cost per device, per hour, day, week, month and year.
Works with any currency. If you enter the cost per KWh in Euros, Dollars or Pounds from your supplier, the calculation is the same and will display the results in the rate you enter.
Power Usage Meters
In order to find out the wattage usage of your devices, it may be worth investing in a Plug-in Digital LCD Electricity Usage Monitor. These can cost around £20, €20, $20 . You may well save yourself twice that in the first month if you are serious about cutting the cost of your electricity bill.
Power usage meters give you a far more accurate reading of the actual wattage used per appliance rather than trusting a smart-meter that your energy supplier has given you. Smart meters can be misleading and there can often be a delay in the changes as you unplug appliances and reconnect them.
