Where I am power 7.52 cents per kWh. However, if you go over a certain |
| 8 |
amount per billing period (in my area it's 1376 kWh) the price increases |
| 9 |
to 11.2 cents per kWh for anything above that limit. |

In comparison to around the world, I know we are on the low end of power |

cost. |

When I build a PC, I don't even think anything about its power |
| 15 |
requirements. Lately though I've been going to smaller form factors for |
| 16 |
convenience, and due to this I can take advantage of better energy |
| 17 |
efficiency. When I shop for appliances, etc. I do consider the power |
| 18 |
consumption. I guess I'm strange that way. |
