30-35 kWh per day. Fully electric houses and houses with EVs can use 1.5-2x that.

Average cost per kWh in my state (NC) is 15¢/kWh, though states up North, and out West can be much highers and can have time of day rates (how much you pay depends on when you consume power). Most expensive early morning and evening. Places like Hawaii can cost as much as 55¢/kWh.
