MWe How to Save on Electricity - One of a series I Become a watt watcher by knowing how much energy each appliance uses 66 Knowing how much electricity your home appliances consume can help you manage their use more wisely. Electricity usage is measured in kilowatt hours (kwh). One kilowatt hour is 1000 watts of electricity in use for one hour. (Another way to describe it is the amount of electricity consumed by a single 100 watt light bulb burning for 10 hours). In Utah Powers service area, the average cost of one kilowatt hour is about 3$ (among the lowest in the nation). The following chart, prepared by the Edison Electric Institute, lists the approximate amount of electricity consumed by various appliances in normal use for one year. When figuring your electric usage, you need to take into account the size of an appliance and how much you use it. We hope that knowing which appliances use the most electricity will help you become an energy-savin- g watt watcher. Conservation means remembering to use what you need, but need what you use.
