> dryer use accounts for about 6 percent of U.S. residential electricity use

That's a huge amount! I didn't realize it was so much!

At home we stopped using the dryer and the electricity bill got reduced like a 30%. It's impossible to dry all the cloth in rainy winter weeks (imagine 10°C(50°F) and 90% of humidity), so now we are hanging towels, bed sheets and similar stuff and using dryer for small stuff, probably 50% and 50%.
