Regardless of the opinions on the UA flag in the bio, I would really like to see how many KWh were measured so think if that is plausible for a coffee shop. I know electricity is insane in Europe but it is still very possible someone fucked up
Possible, but I'm guess that's not the explanation. Europe's energy costs are skyrocketing across the board, and a bunch of businesses literally can't keep their lights on. So I'm thinking this is probably what it looks like at first glance; insane energy costs.
I looked at several sources and it looks like the cost of electricity in Ireland averages about €0.33/kWh.
€9024.7/0.33 = 27347kWh in 73 days.
They are open 8 hours per day (I checked Google) except closed one day
That means they should operate (6/7) * 73 days * 8 hr/day ~= 500.5 hours in 73 days
27347KWh / 500.5hr means an average of 54639 watts continuously. Now I realize I may have very well fucked up on my my math, coffee takes a fair amount of heat and energy and they probably heat food as well but holy shit that is a lot of energy for a tiny coffee shop to be drawing that much on average for their entire business hours.
