I'm trying to determine the cheapest method of running my fridge .. electric or LPG , for the sake of the calculation I'm assuming the fridge is equally efficient on either fuel..
So, using these two costs ..
A kw unit of electricity costs 15p
1lt of LPG costs 50p
How many kw do you get from 1 lt of LPG
1kw h = 3412 btu
1lt LPG = 25,248 btu = 7.4 kw
so, 1kw of LPG cost 50p div 7.4 = 6.75 p
If this is correct it is cheaper to run on LPG
Can someone verify ? my head hurts oh:
thanks
