How much does power (electricity) cost in your area ?

[justagrower]

in the UK and paying £ 0.10509 ( $ 0.2084 , Eu 0.1335 ) per kw/h .

plus standing charge £ 0.11270 ( $ 0.2197 , Eu 0.1432 ) per day .

plus 5% tax .

cost here per day to run a 1000w on 12 /12 without tax or standing charge =
£ 1.2611 ( $ 2.4586 , Eu 1.6024 )

lets say 70 days on 12/12 = £ 88.2756 ( $ 172.094 , Eu 112.165 ) .

+ approx 50w per day for the ballast and it s not going to be far away from £100.00 ( $ 194.95 , Eu 127.06 ) per cycle .

be interesting to here what growers are paying worldwide . i have a feeling the prices here in the UK will be amongst the highest , and the prices from the US , the lowest .

Roughly US$0.40 per kWh after all is said and done. (The rest of the country pays an average of something like $0.10/kWh.)

justagrower ... something is wrong either with your math or with mine ...

using your 600w, at your rate of $0.2084 @ 12 hrs per day i come up with :

.6kw x 0.2084 x 12 = $1.50 per day.

electricity in my area (western canada) is $.075/kwh

Here in the coast of the US we pay

Electric comsumption .1048 KWH
Deferred energy adjust .00885 KWH
temp green power financing .00088 KWH
tax 5%
universal charge .00039 KWH

We get ripped off from our power company due to their bad financal practice

Even though we get most of our power from the Hoover dam
