Mining Energy Consumption Calculator

Typical ASIC miners: 1000-3500W

Average US rate: $0.12/kWh, varies by location

Formula

Energy (kWh) = (Watts / 1000) × Hours

Cost = Energy (kWh) × Rate ($/kWh)

How to Use

  • Enter your mining hardware's power consumption in watts
  • Specify how many hours per day it runs
  • Enter the number of days to calculate
  • Input your electricity rate (check your utility bill)

Example Hardware

• Antminer S19 Pro: 3250W

• Antminer S19j Pro: 3050W

• Whatsminer M30S++: 3400W

• GPU Rig (6x RTX 3080): ~1500W
