If you grow short plants, you should definitely try LEDs. 1  The first series of costs on the chart represents an electricity cost of $0.12/kwH, or 12 cents per kilowatt hour (a kilowatt hour is 1,000 watts being used for one hour). 2  $0.12/kwH was the US national average cost for electricity in 2011.
The cost to run the lights per day is $0.2735236 or $8.20 per month. If I have an HID (high intensity discharge) light with a 600 watt bulb in it, using the same method of calculation, it would cost me $30.90 per month. Of course, with a metal halide HID light I could grow my own tomatoes and other vegetables indoors.
