~60 kwH per day...that's actually pretty much inline with a normal household (also about the average of what my rooftop solar achieves).

But this number is per capita energy use across the whole society, including manufacturing and transportation. Not just household use. France only reached this level in the 1960s, Japan in the 1970s. China reached this level in 2012.
