Can you read your electric bill? What does it cost to keep all those electronics in your home operating each month? We want to help you understand and calculate a kilowatt hour.
Ten 100 watt lightbulbs operating for one hour is equivalent to one kilowatt hour, or ten cents on average. One 1500 watt electric space heater, operating for one hour will average fifteen cents. Operating it every day for a full month could add more than one hundred dollars to your energy bill.
Use this simple worksheet [click here] to help you calculate energy use and better understand your bill. It’s easy - wattage, times the daily hours of operation, divided by 1000. Use $0.11 as your guide for cost of each kilowatt hour. [click here] to see a sample list of appliance wattages.
Still not sure where your energy is being used? Purchase a kilowatt monitor from us for $26.75 and plug your appliance into it to see a recording of what it costs to operate. That old refrigerator in the garage is probably costing you more than a trip to the store to purchase a cold drink. You can also call us to request a copy of your load data as taken directly from your meter. You can see hourly, daily or monthly energy use |

MVEC implemented a computer software update that forced a change to account numbers for all MVEC members. Effective immediately, your account number now has an additional zero in the third position from the right as follows:
Sample former account number: 1234501
New account number: 12345001
If you use an electronic banking process to pay your bills, please let your financial institution know of this change. When reporting power outages or referencing your account in other ways, remember to add the extra zero. Your December bill will reflect your new account number |
