Pete uses a total of about 32.331 kilowatts every day, which is over twice as many watts as the national average is, of 16,000 kWh (including industry). Pete uses the most electricity because he uses the most appliances. He leaves his computer on all day and all night, he also eats more hot food, and uses a lot of extra appliances like a siren, a television, a black light, and Nintendo. Dara uses the least amount of energy, with a total around 10 kilowatts each day, which is below the national average. The reason why she does not use that much energy is because she does not eat many hot meals, takes short showers, and does not leave her computer on all of the time.
