How we calculate electricity costs
Daily consumption (kWh) = power (W) ÷ 1000 × hours of use. Monthly = daily × 30. Annual = daily × 365. Cost = consumption (kWh) × unit rate (PLN/kWh). The unit rate is the energy component on your electricity bill — typically PLN 0.65–0.85/kWh net.
Example electricity cost calculation
Air conditioner: 1000 W, running 4 hours/day, electricity rate PLN 0.75/kWh. Daily consumption: 1000 W ÷ 1000 × 4 h = 4 kWh. Daily cost: 4 kWh × PLN 0.75 = PLN 3.00. Monthly cost: PLN 3.00 × 30 = PLN 90.00. Annual cost: 4 kWh × 365 days × PLN 0.75 = PLN 1,095.00.
