Where I am power 7.52 cents per kWh. However, if you go over a certain
amount per billing period (in my area it's 1376 kWh) the price increases
to 11.2 cents per kWh for anything above that limit.

In comparison to around the world, I know we are on the low end of power
cost.

When I build a PC, I don't even think anything about its power
requirements. Lately though I've been going to smaller form factors for
convenience, and due to this I can take advantage of better energy
efficiency. When I shop for appliances, etc. I do consider the power
consumption. I guess I'm strange that way.
