I just got last year's electricity bills for the apartment, so I can definitively say I'm using less power!

month	previous tenant ('07/'08)	me ('08/'09)	% difference	$ difference **
Nov/Dec	785 kWh	477 kWh	-39%	$ 27.72
Dec/Jan	829 kWh	539 kWh	-35%	$ 26.10
Jan/Feb	908 kWh	738 kWh*	-19%	$ 15.30

* My reading - meter reader may not have gone by yet this month
** @ $0.09 / kWh

I haven't compared the temperature though - and being 100% electric heat, that's the biggest portion of winter power usage.
