Normaly, they assume 4000 kWh as average per year.

But the joke is, that the industry needs much more electric power.

In Austria and Geramny, the average consumption per inhabitant
is 8000 kWh per year.

Only around 2000 kWh per year for the household,
the rest is the industry.

Lets have my GEMINI inhabited solar power plant as example

It sounds great, that this house can provide electric power
for 8 house holds. But ist sounds much less impressive,
when it's only 4 people complete consumption including the
industrial power consume to produce all the goods, this
4 people consume
