Electricity Bill Calculator

Estimate your monthly electricity cost.

How the bill is worked out

The energy charge is the kilowatt-hours you used multiplied by the price per kWh. The base charge and any other fees are then added to give the estimated total.

For example, 500 kWh at $0.15 per kWh is a $75.00 energy charge. Adding a $10.00 base charge and $5.00 in fees gives a total of $90.00.

How to use it

  • Enter the kWh used in the billing period from your bill.
  • Enter the price per kWh from your bill or your provider's tariff.
  • Add the base charge and other fees if your bill shows them.

The result is an estimate. Your actual bill can differ if your rate changes during the period.
