How This Calculator Works
The WattWise Energy Calculator helps you estimate the cost of running your household appliances. Simply select an appliance, enter how many hours you use it daily, and the cost of electricity per kilowatt-hour (kWh). The calculator then multiplies these values to show your estimated monthly cost.
For example, if you run a 100-watt fan for 8 hours daily at $0.15 per kWh, the monthly cost is calculated as:
- Daily Energy Use: 0.8 kWh
- Daily Cost: $0.12
- Monthly Cost: $3.60
This information empowers you to make informed decisions about energy consumption and identify areas to cut costs.
Why Reducing Energy Use Matters
Reducing your energy consumption is not only good for your wallet but also for the planet. Lower energy use means fewer greenhouse gas emissions, reduced strain on power grids, and less reliance on fossil fuels.
Some quick tips to start saving energy:
- Switch to energy-efficient appliances and LED lighting.
- Unplug devices when not in use to avoid phantom energy drain.
- Use natural light during the day instead of electric lighting.
- Maintain appliances to ensure they run efficiently.
Even small changes can add up to big savings over time, making your home more sustainable and cost-effective.
