Planning tools

Independent reading and planning resources. Check the linked original sources before making decisions.

PLANNING TOOL 01

Annual electricity cost

Multiply an annual kWh figure by your own unit rate. Excludes standing charges and other costs. Defaults are hypothetical, not the current price cap.

PLANNING TOOL 02

Cycle-based electricity estimate

Use a label figure stated per 100 cycles, then enter your planned number of cycles. Real consumption varies with programme and use. Do not enter an annual label figure here.

PLANNING TOOL 03

Complete appliance purchase

Include the quoted services you need. These example GBP amounts are assumptions, not current offers. Enter an included service once to avoid double-counting.
