This isn't related to inflation/economy, as I always have these kinds of results in general.. the utility company sends out "home energy reports" a few times per year, and the one I received the day before yesterday says my energy use in June-July was 52% lower than efficient homes...
The "units" represent a combination of electricity and gas... mine was 306 units, efficient homes were 644 units, and similar homes were 1,170 units!
I'm guessing the difference is because most/many people around here run t.v.'s and AC's nearly 24/7, plus their microwaves. I only watch t.v. a few hours at night, rarely use AC, unplug power bar and converter box when not in use.
