How much do I lose from guests who waste energy?

You calculate this by multiplying rental nights by the share of bookings with noticeable wastage, the extra kWh per night (conservatively estimate 4 kWh, higher with a swimming pool, sauna or hot tub) and your own kWh rate. At 180 rental nights, 40% wastage and 30 cents per kWh, that comes to just over 86 euros per property per year. This is an upper limit: how much you actually recover when guests pay themselves varies by guest and can only be seen with a measurement per property.
