Understand Your Current Energy Usage

Electricity Costs

Your bill is estimated to be $275 on the lower end (around May) and $320 on the higher end (around July). In your state of California, the price that you pay for your electricity per kWh is the highest rate in the country: 53¢. The cheapest rate can be found in Utah, at 13¢ per kWh.

Energy Sources

In your state of California, the energy sources are 10% nuclear, 44% natural gas, 8% hydroelectric, 7% wind, and 31% solar. This means 44% of the energy comes from "dirty" sources. This contributes to the carbon footprint from your home’s electricity, which we estimate to be 4,476 lbs CO₂ a year. The average carbon footprint for a home in your state is 5,335 lbs.

Usage and Consumption

Your estimated monthly energy consumption is 881 kWh. The average for homes in your zipcode is 1,051 kWh. Several key factors contribute to your consumption. One is the age of your house since the older it is, the less efficient it tends to be. Size also matters, as bigger houses take longer to heat or cool. Your house is 3,976 square feet. The weather matters too because when temperatures are at their extremes, you use more energy.

How We Crunch the Numbers

1
We estimate every home's electricity usage based on data from a number of public and private data sources, including your electricity distributor and the Department of Energy.
2
We overlay key information about where you live, including weather and climate data about your region, and housing data like when your home was built and how big it is.
3
To figure out your home's carbon footprint, we look at how electricity is generated in your state, like whether your electricity is coming more from coal (very carbon-intensive) or wind (carbon-free).

Using this data-driven approach, we have created a machine learning model that can estimate electricity usage and carbon footprint for every home in the US. We then use this information to recommend the best options for you, so you can feel good that WattBuy is recommending something truly personalized.

Our electricity estimations are trusted by our partners at The Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory, as well as many of the biggest consumer brands in the world.
