Kilowatt is a measure of power, in other words the amount of energy passing per second or minute or hour. So you can have 1 kilowatt of power continuously. A TV uses about 0.2 kW and a typical kettle uses 2 kW when running.

The power supply capability to an area is generally reckoned to average about 1-1.5 kW per house, some use more, some use less.

Kilowatt is the measure of a given level of power at any given moment in the described circuit. Taken as such, peak power levels in an average residence can vary widely based upon the electrical loads present in the home. If for example a home uses air conditioning, or electric heat the consumption would be many times that used in a home with out these loads. Painted in broad strokes, the typical residence peak demand has increased in recent decades. Typical home peak consumption for utility load estimations are around 8,400 watts (8.4KW).
