Households in Wyoming use 6% less electricity than the national average and pay 24% less than average. Light use and a below-average rate together, which is the cheapest position a state can be in. The climate pulls the other way here: 7,300 heating degree days against 400 cooling ones, so how a home is heated matters more than how it is cooled.

What this means for heating
Wyoming sees around 170 freezing nights a year. Whether a heat pump beats a furnace here depends on the gap between those two prices above — not on the equipment.
