It claims 200MW/150,000 homes = 1.3KW for a US home !!!! So homes in Arizona don't have AC or electrical appliances and are all owned by eco-warriors

- snowwindwaves 15y agoall of the appliances are not on all the time, sometimes more power is used, sometimes less. 1.3 kw per hour for every hour in the year is the average.
- chrisvale 15y agothe top comment right now has a reference to the EIA which states that the average homes uses 10,896 KWh in a year. divide by 8,760 and you get 1.24 KW average
- cfgvjkljhgfb 15y agoChecked the figures and 1.3Kw is the average (24*365) for Arizona. Surprising - when I lived in Houston you needed AC running 24x7 for 6months of the year and all the other appliances where electric. I assume, being in the desert, Arizona is cooler at night and they use propane/oil heating in the winter?
