While the us and canada are up around 4 500 kwh per person the uk and germany are below 2 000 kwh.
The canadian climate higher incomes in our country.
Of electric energy per year.
The information is grouped by geography energy consumption appearing as row headers.
Of course there are many reasons for this.
The total production of all electric energy producing facilities is 650 bn kwh which is 124 of the countries own usage.
The table type is simple.
This lower figure is offset by a higher usage of natural gas the average ontario household uses about 9 500 kwh of electricity per year.
This table displays the results of household energy consumption canada and provinces.

Total electricity energy use in canada in 2016 was 1 785 petajoules.
For the column header row 1 is energy type row 2 is reference period.
