To view current cost estimates:

Energy > More > Current Cost Per Hour

Want to know how much it costs to run your dryer? The CURRENT COST PER HOUR feature will allow you to figure out how much it costs to operate any electrically powered appliance or device in your home. This feature shows your whole home’s energy use in real time. First, take a look at the screen and note your energy use. Then, start the dryer and check back to see the cost difference. Unless other appliances turned on while you were starting the dryer, you can infer the difference between the original and new “cost per hour” values is what it costs you per hour to run the dryer.

From the CURRENT COST PER HOUR screen, you’ll see the current cost per hour kWh, the rate at which you’re currently using electricity and the cost per kWh.
