I. Annual Narrative
Fourteen thousand two hundred kilowatt-hours, and where they went.
Your household consumed 14,217 kWh over the trailing twelve months, peaking sharply in January and dipping to its quietest hum in early June. Heating accounted for forty-one percent of the year's burn, cooling another eleven, and a long tail of appliances and standby loads absorbed the remainder. At your blended supply rate of $0.2814 / kWh,3 the year cost $4,002 — roughly $334 a month, though February alone took $612.
The figures that follow are not estimates of the house in the abstract; they are this house, measured. Where a number is modeled rather than metered, it is marked so. Where a recommendation appears, its assumed savings are footnoted to the study that produced them.
