What is a kWh?
A kilowatt hour (kWh) is a unit of energy that is equivalent to 1,000 watts of power for one hour of time. In other words, a kWh is a measure of how much energy is being used in an hour. In general, an electric vehicle will travel up to 4 miles per 1kWh used.
How much does a kWh cost?
The cost of a kWh varies depending on the location and the type of energy being used. The average cost of a kWh in the UK as of October 2022 is 34.0p/kWh (based on at-home charging), though research suggests that rapid public charging points can cost up to £1/kWh.
