Well, I've just checked that given link and it says 15p per load for my dw. But I often use the quick wash setting, it only takes 25 mins, so surely it'll be cheaper still.

I think water temp is the deciding factor. On my w/m, the half hour 40deg programme is more expensive on elec than the standard 30deg.

15p for a 50 degree wash plus 4p for the water (meter) plus the cost of detergent. 65 degrees will be considerably more

Depends if you want to include the cost of detergent too.
