How energy cost is estimated

Electricity cost is usually estimated with a simple formula: kW × hours × price per kWh. If your appliance draws 2.0 kW for 1.5 hours, it uses 3.0 kWh. Multiply by your tariff to estimate cost.

Real appliances vary their draw during a cycle and tariffs may include time-of-use pricing and fixed fees. These calculators give a practical estimate for comparisons, budgeting and decision-making.

FAQ

Multiply power (kW) by time (hours) to get kWh, then multiply by your price per kWh. Example: 2.0 kW × 1.5 h = 3.0 kWh.

A kilowatt-hour is a unit of energy. Using 1 kW for 1 hour equals 1 kWh. Electricity is typically billed per kWh plus possible fixed charges.

Appliances vary their power during cycles, and tariffs can include taxes, time-of-use pricing and fixed fees. Estimates are best for comparisons and planning.
