Now if you are energy aware your always on load is 100 to 150 watts and your fridge is 110 to 125 watts. So you are down 120+ KWH before you heat the water or heat/cool the home. All this said you can have bills this low but for the poster who asked the question, s/he should plan more if they want flexibility in the budget for energy.

I am retired I no longer get paid to over think non life threatening issues. OP asked for costs not formulated guesses. My post was exact cost paid to seco. Since we have multiple homes here, pay the bills for them, kind of have a handle on what it cost to run them, since 2010. While each person keeps their home at a certain temp, sometimes open windows, and have multiple electronics, it would be hard to say other than it does cost us less to run our designer, than the cottage or PV. I find our generation spends less time sitting in a house, and instead has a active lifestyle here. As I stated the cost to run homes here is far less than for our up north homes.
