what household?

a 5 million dollar home with all sorts of gadgets and an army of live-in servants and heated driveways and pools, or a little cottage with single retired person in it?

the difference can be more than orders of magnitude

enough to keep kittens from freezing, i guess.

It's like asking how much gas does a motor vehicle use

What household, what vehicle?

there is orders of magnitude difference depending on specifics.

BTW what has that got to do with cats? are you trying to breed a Green, Eco-fiendly, energy efficient cat?

How much energy does a 5000 population town use?

Typical power consumption varies widely, depending on the income, and the climate (since much energy is used for heating). Typical power consumption in the USA seems to be about 2 kW PER HOUSEHOLD, in the long-term average. You can make an estimate about the number of households (perhaps 4 or 5 people per household), and base your calculations on that.Note that the above is about POWER usage. The actual ENERGY used will be the power, multiplied by the time period considered.
