How much energy in MW does a small city with offices and malls and stadiums and clubs and golf courses with a population of 80000 people consume in a month or year?

Answer 1

some sources suggest 1 MW powers as much as 1000 homes while others suggest that that number of homes would require as much as 2.4 MW. I'll assume you mean the U.S. In this case a survey last year said that about 2.67 people live in each household, so we'll be generous and round to 3. We'll also take the average of the two power estimates; so 1.7 MW per 1000 homes.

Based on these generous assumptions we can (very) roughly estimate that a city of 80,000 people in the U.S would have approx. 2.66*10^5 homes (based on the 3 people to a home assumption). Then we could estimate (again roughly), that the city would need around 45 MW of power per year.

CONCLUSION: Since these VERY ROUGH estimates are based on North American residential statistics, it is likely that 45 MW per year would be the city's absolute minimum power requirement.

Answer 2

It is difficult to provide an exact value without specific data on the city's energy consumption patterns. However, a small city with the described amenities and 80,000 people may consume anywhere from several megawatts to tens of megawatts on average in a month or a year. Factors such as energy efficiency measures, weather conditions, and types of energy sources used will affect the overall energy consumption.
