40000 rubles. per month for electricity in a country house: a lot or normal?

Some of my friends live in a country house area 200 sq.m.. In a private conversation, they said that in the winter electricity bill they have on average 40000 rubles. Hearing such a sum, I was taken aback, and then he began to consider whether such energy costs justified?

Yes, they have a big house, and heated them his warm floors from an electric boiler, to do with the warm water floor on two floors. Still, it is 40000 rub. per month…

Is there an alternative to such heating when you do not want to sacrifice comfort, but also to pay so much does not seem an attractive prospect?

The first thought that came to - is gasholder (With friends no mains gas and the prospect of its occurrence is extremely illusory). So, the cost of the average volume of the gas tank (which should last approximately one year) with the installation of approximately 300 000 rubles.

And refueling for a year around 80 000 rubles.

Even at a rough calculation of this option is justified and for the first year of operation fully pays for itself.

The second thought to put the kettle on diesel fuel. There are nuances of the arrangement of the boiler room, but it's all solved, and installation of equipment a little more expensive than in the electric boiler. But it turns out another monthly expense: an average of home heating in the winter months will go away 15000-20000 rubles., The sum is much less!

Well, if there was from the gas, Here the figures at all interesting. About heating of the house costs on gas would be in the area 5000-7000 rubles. It is necessary, of course, take into account the cost of the project and to the main gas connection (on average about 300 thousand rubles.). But it is justified, in particular is not very strongly pulled up the price of gas!

And what options do you use heat?
