    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...

    Energy provides an easy measure of the vital needs for us to survive over a wide variety of foods and nutrients. For historical reasons, a number of units have been developed and used to quantify energy, such as J, Cal, kCal, BTU. Suppose that a normal person consumes (and therefore emits) 2000 kCal of energy per day. We also know that in New England, it takes approximately 45 BTU of energy per day to keep one square foot of house...
