Electricity cost calculator

Enter the appliance's wattage, how many hours you use it and the price per kWh from your bill. You see the energy use and the cost.

Use it to find which appliance weighs most on your bill: air conditioning, a heater, a fridge or a computer.

It's on the label or in the manual, in watts (W). If it says kW, multiply by 1000.

It's on your electricity bill: the charge per kWh, with taxes if you want the full cost.

How it's calculated

  1. kWh per day = watts × hours of use ÷ 1000.
  2. kWh per month = kWh per day × days of use. For a year, the month times 12.
  3. Cost = kWh × price per kWh.

An example

A 1000 W appliance used 4 hours a day uses 4 kWh a day and 120 kWh a month.

At MK 250 per kWh, it costs MK 30,000 a month.

Frequently asked questions

What is a kWh?

A kilowatt hour is the energy a 1000 W appliance uses running for one hour. It is the unit on your electricity bill.

Does a fridge run at full power all day?

No. The compressor switches on and off. For appliances like that, use around 8 to 10 hours a day instead of 24.

Why doesn't my bill match exactly?

Your bill adds standing charges, taxes and sometimes tiered prices. This shows only what the appliance uses.
