Before you edited your comment, it was purely about average consumption of grid electricity. However, that’s not even the “personal, immediate consumption”. It’s just… grid electricity. You eat. You have clothes, devices, machines that had to be made and shipped. You heat your dwelling. Everything counts. It’s sometimes hard to quantify what this means, a lot of amortization is always going on.
Please don't go on the Internet and tell other people what they meant. My comment says APARTMENT DWELLERS for a reason, to contrast with e.g. house owners, whose needs are vastly different. I edited and added/clarified with "personal immediate consumption" because either you were nitpicking or I wasn't clear enough with "apartment dwellers".
That's all very well, but the 48kw/h number you quote is not only talking about those things. Hence your comment that it's high is not very relevant. It's not so high once those other things are included.
