Whilst everyone is looking for money saving tips with the impending energy crisis, he’s some info on what you’re spending where (don’t shoot me if it’s wrong I nicked this off someone else!)
How much energy are you using?⚡️
With the new 52p/kWh electric cap this is what stuff will roughly cost:
🥵 1 kWh fan heater / electric radiator = 52p/hour
2 kWh fan heater / electric heater = £1.04/hour
🚿 3 kWh immersion heater = £1.56/hour
💡 5w LED light bulb = 0.26p/hour (that’s 1/4 of a penny an hour or just over 1p every 4hrs)
40w electric blanket = 2p/hour
💡 60w light bulb - 3.12p/hour
🧺 8KG Washing machine (A rating) = 26p/cycle
8KG Washing machine (D rating) = 55p/cycle
Tumble Dryer - Heat Pump - A rating = £1.13/cycle
Tumble Dryer - Condenser - C rating = £2.33/cycle
Oven = 52p/hour
🍳 Electric hob halogen per ring = 85p/hour
Electric hob induction per ring = £1/hour (surprising?)
Microwave 900w = 47p/hour
200w slow cooker = 10p/hour
📺 42" TV = 6p/hour
🖥 Computer monitor = 1p/hour
🕹 Xbox One S = 6p/hour
PS4 = 7p/hour
Amazon echo dot = 0.2p/hour
Sonos One = 0.7p/hour
Google Nest mini speaker = 0.2p/hour
💻 Laptop = 2.5p/hour
American style Fridge Freezer = 2.5p/hour 60p/day
Freestanding fridge freezer = 1.45p/hour 35p/day
Under counter fridge = 0.6p/hour 16p/day
🚿 7.5 kWh electric shower = 6.5p/min
9 kWh electric shower = 7.8p/min
10.8 kWh shower = 9.3p/min
🫖 Electric kettle = 2p/m
4 slice toaster = 4.5p/3 mins
2 Slice toaster = 2.2p/3 mins
1000w 2L Air Fryer = 52p/hour
1300w 4.5L Air Fryer = 67p/hour
🍽 Dishwasher - Full size = 49p/cycle or Slimline = 39p/cycle
Appliances with a standby function (like a TV) still uses energy, so If you’re not using it, SWITCH IT OFF!!
