Heath energy required != electricity requirement.
A modern house in Finland needs around 15-24kWh a year of heat energy if it's well insulated. On the higher end for big + northern houses, and less if you're smaller and further south.
Some get this energy by burning wood, others with heat pumps, and some with direct electricity.
- nandomrumber 11mo ago24kWh is 1kW drawn continuously for 24hrs. That can’t possibly heat any home for an entire year.

- sl-1 11mo agoI think MWh is meant, otherwise it makes no sense
- hdgvhicv 11mo agoMy 90sqm bungalow in the U.K. uses about 15MWh a year for heating - 1500 litres of oil, almost all in winter. Peak load is about 2.5kW over a day (60kWh)

- serpix 11mo agoit does! With a heat pump and insulation.
- nasmorn 11mo agoI think you are off by about 3 orders of magnitude as my Austrian flat need about 7MWh a year for heating and 3MWh of electricity. I could generate 24kWh per year on an indoor bicycle.
