How much power are we using? - TX

This is our consumption for 2015 in the Texas house.

It shows how much power we pulled off the grid per day.

I have included the high and low temperatures from the local airport weather station.

Things to note:
  • Heating is very inefficient.  When the temp drops the consumption spikes.
  • Solar array was commissioned on 4/23/15
  • House is unoccupied starting 4/30/15
  • from 5/5/15 to 5/13/15 the thermostat was set to over cool and dehumidify to 79 deg/50% humidity, for 2 hours starting at 6AM and the rest of the dayit was set to 84 deg/60%.
  • starting 5/14/15, the 'over cool' was moved to start at 11AM so it would use (mostly) locally generated power from the solar array.  You can see the difference in consumption.
