The average U.S. home uses about 900 kWh per month. So that’s 30 kWh per day or 1.25 kWh per hour.
Q. How do you calculate kWh of light?
Calculate the Energy Used for Lighting Find the energy used in kilowatt hours (kWh) by multiplying the total wattage for the fixture by the hours per day that the lights are on. Next, divide this by 1,000. To determine the monthly cost, multiply the energy used per day by 30 to get the monthly kilowatt hours used.
