The average US citizen consumes 12000 kWh of electric energy per year an ‘ end use’ number and does not include the energy lost in converting other energy sources, e.g. fossil fuels to electricity. Note also that a kWh (kilowatt hour) is a unit of energy (not power) but a ‘kWh per year’ is a unit of power. The average electric bill indicates that a consumer pays about $0.12 per kWh of electric energy. Your Uncle Joe wants to get...
