Calculate the energy consumption and costs of your home appliances to identify savings opportunities.
Welcome to Suffolk Daily's Home Appliance Energy Usage Tracker. This tool helps you understand the energy consumption of your household appliances, allowing you to make informed decisions about your energy usage and potentially reduce your electricity bills.
By inputting details about your appliances, such as their wattage and usage patterns, you can get a clear picture of which devices are consuming the most energy and costing you the most money. This knowledge is the first step towards more efficient energy use in your home.

Reduce your energy consumption with these helpful suggestions
By tracking your appliances' energy consumption, you can identify which devices are the biggest contributors to your electricity bill. This knowledge allows you to make informed decisions about upgrading to more energy-efficient models or changing your usage habits to reduce costs.
Remember, the estimated costs provided by this tool are based on average electricity rates and your inputted usage patterns. Your actual costs may vary depending on your specific electricity tariff and how you use your appliances. For the most accurate results, refer to your appliances' user manuals for exact wattage and consult your latest electricity bill for your specific rate.
Regular use of this Energy Usage Tracker, combined with implementing the energy-saving tips provided, can help you significantly reduce your home's energy consumption and lower your electricity bills over time.
Check the rating plate on the back or base, the manual, or the product page. Many kettles are 2,000–3,000W; LED lamps are often under 10W; tumble dryers can be 2,000W+. If you only have amps, watts ≈ volts × amps (about 230V in the UK).
The tracker uses a representative UK unit rate for illustration. For a personal figure, compare the estimate to your bill’s standing charge and unit rate (pence per kWh) from your Suffolk supplier statement.
Electric heating, immersion heaters, tumble dryers, ovens and older fridges usually dominate. Lighting and phone chargers are often small by comparison once LEDs are fitted.
See our home energy efficiency guide for insulation, heating controls and grant pointers. Shift wet appliances to off-peak if you are on a time-of-use tariff, and avoid heated tumble drying when outdoor drying is possible.
