    Being at home all day really should't double the electric use from the average too much, i would guess 1000-1500 kwh a year extra for a computer or tv being on all day, So 4,500 a year could be expected, not the estimated 6 - 7 K.

    Can you go and look at the meters and tell us the readings, or screen shot and post the last bill from the app.

    It seems you did reduce Electric in  2023 vs 2022, But your gas went up, May have been colder. 

    Electric use if it stayed that 'low' all year 1190 / 103 days = 11.55 a day X 365 = 4200 kwh a year.
