I always wonder how much electricity other people are using, because every single electricity bill I've ever received puts me below the consumption of a 'single person household' and there's 2 of us.
This is from our last bill. An average of 15.61kWh per day, and Energy Australia claims the average consumption for 2 people is 29.29kWh per day (double!).
Contradicting that is the data below I found for our area in Albury, which puts us on par with most other households over winter:
How did they get data from 621 years time? Can you get next years newspapers?

I looked my current billing cycle is up, I figure this relate add to the winter months. I'm averaging 5.54kw per day for a single person. Everything here is electric except my stove top.

that's because you are never home, and you make your coffee on "The Boss's Time!"

That's bloody low.
We are running gas stove top and heating and the hot water is gas/solar combo. 2.5kw solar system on the roof and we delay all our washing, dishwasher, etc until the sun is running the panels.

I wish. I prefer coffee the way I make it at home.
Wash on cold. Shower with hot though. No TV. Haven't ever used a heater. Ran air con once last summer for a few hours to facilitate an unexpected nooner. Low watt lights. Etc... Etc. I could get it down a bit more if I was better at remembering to not use all the lights in all the rooms at the same time. House is also pretty small terrace.

Anything that heats or cools generally uses a lot of energy, like dishwashers that heat the water, house heaters, microwaves, Aircon, toasters, clothes dryers.

People are slaves to their air con. I just put on a jumper...or take one off. I'm not far from the waterfront either so I can get wet pretty easy.

I look at like this, if my 80 year old mother can go through a Brisbane summer by using it about 6 times, I can't see why most young fit people need to run it all day & night long through summer.

People are getting soft.
Now everyone has to have a diesel heater when camping , house heating to 26 deg in winter + cooling to 20 deg in summer .
Some friend's houses I now find unbearably hot in winter.
Another factor is that peoples increasing obesity makes them feel the summer heat more.
There is this male bogan fashion for wearing shorts whatever the conditions.

When we were camping in Cunnamulla you could pick the Victorians, they were wearing shorts and big heavy coats in -2C!

If it's an old truck, unless it has a brand new shiny engine, no it wont be E6.....more likely to be "Whats a Euro?"
