Remarkable. I’m in Sydney, my house sounds similar by description but I have gas hot water and stovetop. My house uses over 5 kWh/day for ambient/idle power alone.
I'm typing this on a 32 core ThreadRipper with 32" 4K screen, which runs 24 hours a day! I also have a Zen 2 laptop and a headless M1 Mac Mini running all the time. And assorted Raspberry Pi, HiFive Unleashed etc. But no TV (or at least it's off).
That's impressive. What's your usage pattern like? I mean, in our house there's regular use of washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher, TV's, swimming pool pump. Heck even the swimming pool takes a couple of kWh a day! Would be curious on how to live so frugally.
Sorry if I was unclear. 5 kWh/day of idle. That’s how much it uses when we’re literally not home and all I’ve left on is the networking gear, appliances on standby, etc.
My average actual occupied usage is closer to 20-25 kWh/day, varying mainly by AC load.
