Good morning everyone,
I wanted to ask what your house’s electricity consumption is at night when everything is quiet and sleeping, so what is running continuously?
We have a newly built house, moved in summer 2019. Our building services include underfloor heating (air-to-water heat pump), controlled mechanical ventilation (runs at full power 3 times a day for 2 hours each, then reduced), a photovoltaic system, and otherwise the usual nighttime appliances (phone charger plugged into USB outlet, e-bikes charging occasionally, 2 TVs on standby, Alexas on standby, etc.).
At night, we have a continuous consumption of about 232W (with ventilation running at reduced power and when the heat pump is not producing). I can see this in the app for the photovoltaic system. From 0:00 to 6:30 a.m. we consume about 2.8 kWh.
How about you?
Best regards

I recently received my statement for the first year.
We consumed 4,250 kWh.
Continuous mechanical ventilation uses about 1 kWh per day
Wastewater treatment system about 0.5 kWh per day
Server cabinet with NAS about 1.2 kWh per day
Dishwasher on average 1.2 kWh per day
Garden pump consumption so far 150 kWh
Refrigerator
Separate freezer
500-liter (132-gallon) aquarium, consumption not yet measured
Other than that, there is a TV that is not used constantly. However, we do a lot of cooking, and because of small children, the washing machine runs almost every other day.
We have a dryer, but it wasn't used once during the year.
As you can see, everything adds up, resulting in an average of about 12 kWh per day.

Additionally, there is a TV that doesn’t run continuously. However, we cook quite often, and because of young children, the washing machine is used almost every other day.
We have a dryer, but it wasn’t used at all during the year.
As you can see, it all adds up, and we average about 12 kWh per day. What type of heating do you use?

What do you use for heating?We use gas, and with that, our hydronic heating consumed exactly 10,400 kWh.
