Assuming perfect efficiency in terms of adding energy to the velocity of an 80kg human payload, with zero other power usages, losses, etc, simply accellerating a human up to and back down from that speed takes about 1.6*10^16 joules, or about half of the daily output of the worlds nuclear reactors, or the ENTIRE volume of the Hindenburg as a bladder full of gasoline and a magic machine to extract 100% of the energy.
