Not at the current prices for new customers. I'm currently paying 50,07€ct/kWh here in northern Germany. 25W * 8760h * 0,5€ = ~109€ per year. The price hurts

The price hurts, yes, but the waste of power is _criminal_.
- Semaphor 4y agoHah, wanted to say, nice current prices, can I have those? But you beat me, 0.41€, also Northern Germany.
- yourusername 4y agoI hope you realize both of your prices are incredibly cheap. New contracts in the Netherlands are up to €0.88 per kWh (edit: seems i underestimated, 0.88 is the average, the most expensive is €1.14 per kWh now.)
- benhurmarcel 4y agoI wouldn't count the hours during winter though. It's heating, which you'd pay anyway.

- iggldiggl 4y agoAt least with the electricity prices in Germany (not referring to the current price level, but with reference to the last decades), a dedicated source of heat (oil, gas, pellets, heat pump, district heating, …) is normally more cost-efficient than simple resistive heating. So while it's true that that standby consumption is at least good for something in winter, a lower standby consumption and in turn turning up the central heating a little more would normally still be the better choice.
- phpthrowaway99 4y agoVery few people heat their homes with electricity. It's the most expensive energy source. So while the heat is atleast useful in the winter, most people would prefer to take the TV idle spend and apply that to a much cheaper heat source.
