Did you realize you can calculate how many horsepower your house uses on average? And you can calculate how far your house would drive if it were a car?
Last August I used about 1500 kWh of electrical energy
Horsepower = kWh/(720 or 744 [hours in 30 or 31 day month])= kW * 1.34 (hp/kW) = hp
Distance = kWh * 4mi/kWh (Tesla Model 3)
So last August my house used about 2.7 horsepower on average and "drove" 6,000 miles
- mozman 3y agoEveryone is different. Your calculation omits time. There will be a huge peak demand when everyone recharges which is the primary problem. Using your math above my house is 7hp, or 14,000 miles a month.
