Energy Bills & Savings

Energy bills depend on your rates, your appliances and how well your home holds heat. We break down average electric and gas bills by state and show which changes actually lower the total.

• Bills by state: average electric and gas costs from EIA data.
• Appliance costs: what each device costs to run at your rate.
• Upgrades: smart thermostats, insulation, windows and energy audits, cost vs. savings.
• Credits and rebates: what still exists, with a last-checked date.

Start with the biggest items first, and you can cut your energy bills without spending a fortune.
