Re: usage of energy

on FE I found this bit, ohio.com

describing what the average residential uses: 750KWh per month.

The standard residential customer using 750 kilowatt hours in a month saw an average increase of about 4.4 percent when Akron-based FirstEnergy Corp.'s (NYSE: FE) new rates took effect in January. That included changes in what are called distribution and temporary generation rates.

But some high-demand users like the Forguses and others who had special rates for electric heating have seen much higher increases.

On average, the Forgus house uses about 2,300 kilowatt hours (kWh) per month, or three times the standard customer.



I found this odd. I live in an all-electric home and run up slightly over 400kwh a month.
