kWh stands for kilowatt-hours, and the amount you put here is measured every year. There are 2 ways to find out your consumption amount:
Industry Estimates
The industry standards that we have already added to the signup form are:- 1 Person ๐โโ๏ธ = 1400 kWh
- 2 People ๐ซ = 2300 kWh
- 3 People ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ = 3000 kWh
- 4 People ๐จโ๐จโ๐งโ๐ฆ = 3700 kWh
From An Old Invoice
If you have an old invoice, simply find the total kWh from your previous bill. If you did not have any unique circumstances during that time (like working from home, or a long holiday), then you can use this number.
