You can find out here !
PG&E's wonderful calculator
Believe it or not, PG&E is trying to help consumers educate themselves on ways to save money by either increasing the efficiency or decreasing usage on all energy consuming products in your home.
We want to take it a step further! By thoroughly inspecting your ENTIRE home's energy usage, we can find where you may be wasting energy and even better, HELP you formulate a plan to reduce your bill!
One thing to keep in mind…lots of small simple things can add up to a substantial portion of your bill. I found this to be true by replacing four lights in my garage. The old fixtures were standard 100 watt incandescent lightbulbs and doing a little math lets us see…
4 times 100 watts = 400 watts /hour
4 hours per day =1600 watts per day
30 days per month = 48,000 watts per month
48 Kw (Kilowatts) X $.16 per KWh =$7.68 per month total cost
12 (months) at $7.68 per month = Total yearly cost of $92.16
The new fixtures are 16 watt Fluorescent fixtures...
4 times 16 watts = 64 watts/hour (LESS than one old lightbulb!)
4 hours per day=256 watts per day
30 days per month = 7,680 watts per month
7.7 Kw (Kilowatts) X $.16 per KWh =$1.23 per month total cost
12 (months) at $1.23 per month = Total yearly cost of $14.76Each month on my GARAGE alone I can save $6.45…"Whoopiedoo" you say?
…what if we can find 9 other "garage" type items in my (or YOUR?) home… Does saving $64.50 a month sound a little better? If so, GO HERE to find out how you can start saving money right away!
By the way $64.50 X 12 = (drum roll) $774.00!!!
No small potatoes anymore!
