Hi,
Firstly, I must admit that I never paid much attention to the energy bill or the energy consumption.
Whilst researching solar panels for our house in Melbourne, I noticed that our electricity consumption is very high compared to the average in the suburb.
We are consuming 61kWh per day, which according to the citipower data available online is about three to four times the suburb average (!)
Of course, the average is not a particularly useful number but I would say that our house is relatively average for the suburb: 4 bedrooms, living/dining/kitchen, lounge, double garage. The house is 9 years old, has a ducted heating cooling unit. Hot water is instant gas. Almost all lights are LED. 2 Fridges, 1 freezer, washing machine and dryer. We are a family of 4 (kids are 9 and 12)
I am not sure why the bar for May is smaller than the others.

I'm puzzled whether this sort of electricity consumption is normal and if not, what I can do to investigate it further...
Any advice is much appreciated.
