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).
To convert watts to kilowatts, you divide by 1,000. Therefore, 500 watts is equal to 0.5 kilowatts. To convert minutes to hours, you divide by 60. So, 500 watts per minute is equivalent to 0.5 kilowatts per 60 minutes, or 0.5/60 = 0.00833 kilowatts per hour.
One thousand kilowatts per megawatt.
Kilowatts is how fast it uses energy, the amount of energy per day is measured in kilowatt-hours. If the house uses 2 kilowatts continously on average, it would use 48 kilowatt-hours per day.

To convert BTUs to kilowatts, you can use the conversion factor where 1 BTU per hour is approximately equal to 0.000293 kilowatts. Therefore, to convert 14,000 BTUs to kilowatts, you multiply 14,000 by 0.000293, which equals approximately 4.1 kilowatts.

In our moderately insulated and all-electric house, we three adults use about 8 000Kw per year. We have a wood fire for some heating, but summer and winter, the electric consumption only varies about 20% per month.
