Do research regarding MOCA standards… I use them to wire backhaul my ASUS ZenWIFI Pro ET-12's… I have ATT 2gb Fiber. I get over 2gb/s wired. My wireless speeds can reach around 1gb/s near my router that's wired backhauled via the MOCA device.
0.003 kW/device * 2 (devices) * 24 (hours/day) * 365 (days/year) * 6 years = 315 kWh (for 6 years)
Average for US currently is 15.45 cents/kWh [energybot.com]:
315 kWh * 0.1545 $/kWh = $48.72
The max power the supply generates is 6 W, so it can be as much as double the above calculation, but usually supplies are over-spec'd, and assuming half the capacity (on average) seems a reasonable starting point.
So, yeah, you are spending a chunk of change on power as well. I can't conclude either way whether that cost is significant for each individual. Wholeheartedly agree, though, that maybe the $170 that one might spend is worth the effort of just pulling cat6 cable.

Some Modems (eg from Xfinity) have a built in MOCA. You just have to turn it on in the Hardware settings… Therefore you would need only one.

It could very well end up like $120 extra for 6 years for the life of your setup. Not a whole lot but still.
Prone to what problems… guaranteed you've never actually tried Moca devices… ask the average Joe to pull Cat 6 throughout their house. How many you think will try? Pretty well every house has coax throughout their house. These MOCA devices use the existing RG6 to establish wired internet for those who do not have Ethernet cables throughout their house… or can't or won't wire their house with Ethernet.

Please stop giving advice in forums… you're not helping anything.
Hint: 3W / 1000 gives you your kW, and you wanna multiply by $/kWh to get $.
Definitely spend the $50. Unless the house is super open, unfinished basement, large attic, .etc.
