Considering all of the errors and mistakes government makes, the post about A Flock of Seagulls seems to be a perfect case of the pot calling the kettle black. (Not to mention that there is no such animal as a seagull).
An electric heater rated at 1000 watts (1 kilowatt), operating for one hour uses one kilowatt-hour (equivalent to 3.6 megajoules) of energy. A television rated at 100 watts operating for 10 hours continuously uses one kilowatt-hour. A 40-watt light bulb operating continuously for 25 hours uses one kilowatt-hour.
Your answer will be in kilowatt-hours (kWh). (And just in case you are wondering, a kilowatt-hour is how much power you are using at any given time multiplied by the total time the power is being used. If you run a 60w bulb all day, youâre using 1,440 watt-hours or 1.4kWh) â2.
