Average Electricity Compusation - no gas

RobertPBham

Hi folks,

I've been searching to find out what the average electricity consumption is if you do not have gas (all heat is electric).

I cannot seem to find this anywhere but know if I did have gas, the average is 3300 KW a year.

Any ideas - it's a two bed apartment?

Thanks
Rob

Is there anyway to edit titles - I'm not quite sure what I even spelt there or how it happened. It's meant to say consumption!!

Varies wildly here - depending on how cold we get and how much the tumble drier gets hammered cos its too wet to dry outside - just become an axe weilding maniac like me whenever the kids leave the lights/tv/etc on all night!
ps those remote plug adaptors are good that you can press a remote button and they turn everything off. (3 for £10 of flebay)

What sort of electric heating? E7 or non E7?

RobertPBham

Thanks for the replies. It's not E7 just normal.

I'm not too worried about the overall cost more just a general idea of what the average usage is. I've read 10KW a day which seems mighty low especially looking at the KW usage of my panel heaters each hour.

10kWh a day would be 3,650kWh pa, which is about the average for a 3 b/r house with gas CH and hot water. 10,000kWh would not be exceptional if you are on all-electric heating.
But if you total the panel heater ratings by the no. of hours they are on in a year, then that will give you your annual heating consumption anyway.
