Energy-saving bulbs use much less than 1 kilowatt and most of them use less than 40 watts which is 0.04 kilowatts.

A 20 watt bulb uses 1 kilowatt-hour of energy if run for 50 hours.

What percentage of energy does an energy saving bulb save compared to an ordinary bulb?

It varies, depending on the specific model, but an energy-saving (fluorescent) light bulb should save at least half the energy, for the same luminosity, compared to the old-fashioned incandescent light bulbs. The incandescent light bulbs ought to be outlawed, except for specific purposes where the heat they generate is actually needed.
