How much does it take to power a city?
I am sort of looking for both ballpark estimates on what it takes to power a city and explanations on how power is measured (especially over time).
As I understand it, the three gorges dam will eventually produce something like 22.5 gigawatts of power while New York city uses 5 gigawatts of power while New York state uses around 140 gigawatts. Am I even close to correct? It doesn't feel like I am, I really need help visualizing what it takes to produce power for a city.
