This thread makes me question my 2,000kWh power bill, I don't have any servers and always shut down my main PC over night. I do use a laptop as a media center that I don't shut down, but I figured it can't be using that much power.

Maybe the main factor is me being in home office and using my PC about 12-14h a day? 😅

Edit: Oh, I guess many people are talking monthly usage here. My number is over the last year, so I guess I'm not doing too bad

    I'm in a 1 bedroom with my fiancé, a home server, and our gaming rigs running for long portions of the day.

    We use about 243kWh a day month.

    you still have halogen lights or worse?

    If your heating system isn't electric I really wonder how you do.

    Otherwise: Hoven, electric kettle/toaster, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer are usually the most consuming devices

    Wait, you're talking monthly or yearly?

    yearly, and I use LED light bulbs in the whole flat

    I do haven an electric stove/oven, kettle, dishwasher and washing machine. Oh, and my warm tap water is also heated by electricity. Haven't really considered those, but that's definitely a good point, water takes tons of energy to heat after all
