USD 0.0525 kWh per h? What even? You messed up some dimensions there. Do you pay 0.0525 USD per kWh and that every hour (meaning you have a 1 kW pc)?

At the current exchange rate I'm paying just over $0.15/kWh (10.301p/kWh).

There are so called Economy 7 tariffs here where electricity is half-price between midnight and 7am, but whether that works out cheaper for 24 hour mining operations or not, I don't know.

I pay about $0.09/kWh.  There's a lot of places in the US that have cheaper power, mostly in the south.  Look where a lot of the larger players companies are building datacenters (Apple, Google, etc.).  They normally build them in cheap power areas.

Nothing is free, someone is paying for it, you're just stealing from them.

I pay about $0.12/kWh.

I was surprised to get a visit from a door-to-door energy salesman, who told me the industry has been deregulated in my state and there is active competition in the energy supply market here.  I'm shopping around for rates now, but should be able to save a cent or so on this figure!
