You're right to make the energy/power distinction but 3 kWh is perfectly possible daily energy use, particularly for someone concerned how much they are using right now. My total electricity use so far today is 3.5 kWh.Gerry1 said:3kWh seems slightly on the low side for the daily energy usage; averaged over the year it's 7.975kWh per day for a typical household that also has gas.2 -
