Electricity per month

We use about 400 kWh per month. A 1000 MW coal plant produces about 520 million kWh/per month (70% time on line, which amounts to about 1.3 million homes supplied if they are all like us). I expect (need to check) that our usage is below average and that the estimate that a 1000 MW coal plant can supply one million homes is not far off.
