This Energy Cost Calculator helps you estimate how much you need to pay for the energy used by an appliance, device, or other equipment. Just enter the required values to calculate energy consumption based on the appliance’s power requirements and usage.

Energy Consumption Formula:

E(kWh/day) = P(W) × t(h/day) / 1000 (W/kW)

Energy Cost Formula:

Cost ($/day) = E(kWh/day) × Cost (cents/kWh) / 100 (cents/$)

The most convenient and reliable way to calculate the energy cost is the power cost calculator. Because it just requires a few inputs and provides you with the precise cost of electricity.

How to Calculate Energy Cost?

To manually calculate energy cost, follow these steps:

Find out the electricity rate per kWh from your utility bill
Check the power rating of the appliance (in watts)
Use the formulas above to calculate energy consumption and multiply by the electricity rate

Example:

Let's determine the weekly energy cost for a home appliance, such as a washing machine. Assume:

Appliance: Washing Machine
Power Consumption: 500 W
Daily Usage: 1.5 hours
Number of Days Used per Week: 5 days
Electricity Cost: $0.15 per kWh

Solution:

Step 1: Daily energy consumption:

Daily Energy = Power × Usage Time
500 W × 1.5 hr = 750 Wh = 0.75 kWh

Step 2: Weekly energy consumption:

Weekly Energy = Daily Energy × Number of Days
0.75 kWh × 5 days = 3.75 kWh

Step 3: Weekly energy cost:

Cost = Weekly Energy × Rate per kWh
Cost = 3.75 kWh × $0.15 = $0.5625 ≈ $0.56

Using this method, running a 500 W washing machine for 1.5 hours per day, 5 days a week, costs about $0.56 weekly. Alternatively, the energy calculator can do this instantly.
