I'll post my own numbers when I get home as I don't have my bill handy. |
Last month our house consumed 310 kWh. The average month since we moved into the house in May 2005 has been 350 kWh.
House is 11 years old, ~ 1800 sf
2 adults and 1 dog.
I play way too much Rock Band.
We switched to CFL bulbs last year (I haven't noticed a decrease in energy consumption), the fridge, washer and dryer are all relatively new models (bought since 2005). I turn the computer off when it's not in use, though I do leave the wireless router on at all times.
I can't believe some of the consumption numbers I'm reading here.

It peaks in the 25-35 m3 range for watering months - we have a programmable sprinkler system that waters twice a week in the morning hours. Average consumption since I started tracking in July 06 is ~11 m3 per month.
