How much do you need to pay per kWh.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

0.23 € for renewable energy in Germany (solar and wind energy). Called "Ökostrom" in Germany I better take this and pay more than have my country to invade iraq, afghanistan and libya, like the americans do :p the more countries you invade, the more suicide bombers you get. this ain't good for anyone in the end.

0.2225 € per kWh in germany. (roughly 0.15 USD) Could have been much cheaper with nucular power (0.08 € at least), but i opted for green electricity and on top i do pay an additional 0.0125 € per kWh to support development of solar/water/wind power plants even further. Makes it a little bit hard to get profits out of bitcoin, but i'm not going to support a third tschernobyl/fukushima. edit: fixed decimal points

If I took gray-electricity (not green) it would also cost me around 8-10 eurocents.

0.08/kwh (cdn) It was cheaper in the last province I lived... like 0.06 / kwh... But oh well. It's all Hydro-electric anyway. If I qualified for the commercial rates in my old province, it would've been like 0.03 / kwh Still easy to make money at mining... around $40 a month to mine at around 1GHash/s by my calculations.

It's around 20 c AUD here. We have solar panels, but get a feed in tariff of 44 c for exporting to the grid, so the opportunity cost of using power during the day is actually higher.

Very neat... so every kwh you use costs you the 44c.... hmm.. does your closest neighbor have panels? Run an extension cable and just pay your portion of their (perhaps panel free) electricity bill?

Yeah. When's it's sunny that is. The feed in tariff system we have is quite stupid and open to gaming. We could get free power if we used absolutely none during the day, to maximise the export and get paid 44 c, and then run everything at night and pay 20 c. That way, the day-time exporting would help subsidise the nighttime usage.
