How much electricity does a electric oven and range use?
In U.S. homes that have one, a electric oven and range uses about 290 kWh a year, or 24 kWh a month. At the 2025 average residential price of 17.2¢ per kWh that is $50 a year or $4.16 a month. These are EIA estimates from its Residential Energy Consumption Survey of homes and their utility bills, not a manufacturer's label.
What decides the number
Homes that cook with electricity used 290 kWh a year for the range, cooktop and oven together. Microwaves and small appliances such as air fryers and slow cookers are not included; they often use less energy for the same dish because they heat a smaller space.
