What Does It Cost to Run an Electric Oven in Ohio?
Running an electric oven in Ohio costs about $17.54 a month — $213.42 a year — at the state's average rate of 19.49 ¢/kWh. The estimate assumes a typical 3,000-watt electric oven running 1 hours/day, at the all-in average rate (delivery, fixed charges, and utility fees already included; locally billed taxes vary by area).

Electric Oven cost vs U.S. average
At the state average rate, an electric oven in Ohio costs $0.15 more a month than it would at the U.S. average rate.
How much electricity does an electric oven use?
An electric oven draws roughly 2,000-5,000 W; we use 3,000 watts running 1 hours/day. That comes to 3.00 kWh a day — 90.0 kWh a month, or 1095.0 kWh over a year — using kWh = watts × hours ÷ 1000.
Electric ovens use high wattage while preheating and then cycle to maintain temperature, so cooking time changes the final cost materially. Ohio prices that energy at 19.49 ¢/kWh, against a 19.32 ¢/kWh national average.
Electric Oven operating cost estimate in Ohio
| Time period | Energy use | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Per hour | 3.00 kWh | $0.58 |
| Per day | 3.00 kWh | $0.58 |
| Per month | 90.0 kWh | $17.54 |
| Per year | 1095.0 kWh | $213.42 |
These figures use the all-in average rate. Your actual bill can run higher when separately billed taxes, seasonal pricing, and fixed monthly fees apply.
What changes the cost the most?
Two things move this number: your state's rate, which you can't change, and how hard the appliance works, which you often can. For an electric oven, that mostly comes down to preheat duration, temperature setting, self-clean cycle usage.

Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) Retail Sales of Electricity. Updated: April 2026. Estimates use the EIA all-in average residential rate — energy, delivery, fixed charges, and utility fees together, not just the electricity itself. Fees are inside the rate, not an extra on top; how your own bill splits fixed versus per-kWh charges varies by utility.
