9、32万只电灯泡 Light bulbs

  如图所示,这是320000只电灯泡,这些灯泡同时点燃所消耗的电能相当于美国每分钟的电流浪费量,这些电流浪费主要来自于低效住宅电能使用,比如:导线接触不良和电脑进入休眠状态等。

  平均英国每户家庭住宅每年用电量为4500度,如果家庭频繁使用电器烹饪食物、热水器和家庭供电取暖,每年用电量会增加18000度。



There are 320,000 light bulbs in this image. This is equivalent to the number of kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity wasted in the United States every minute from inefficient residential electricity usage, such as poor wiring and computers left in sleep mode.

The average UK household uses around 4500 kWh of electricity annually, plus some 18,000 kWh of gas for cooking, hot water and domestic heating.

  美国能源消耗存在着很大的地区差异性,比如:纽约市平均每户住宅耗电量为4700度,然而在德克萨斯州达拉斯市平均每户住宅耗电量则为16100度,在德克萨斯州有大量的空调。在美国一些寒冷地区,人们使用煤气或天然气进行加热或烹饪,平均每户住宅将额外多消耗28000度电量。

In the US the amount of energy used varies considerably from region to region. For example, households in New York City use around 4700 kWh a year, whereas those in Dallas use 16,100 kWh: there are a lot of air conditioners in Texas. In chillier regions, where people use gas for heating and cooking, they can burn up an extra 28,000 kWh or so per household.
