Energy Consumption: Cars

To determine the average kWh a person in Hong Kong uses each day by car transportation, the amount of motor gasoline used per person is found as 325,000 tons. The population of Hong Kong is about 6.9 million people. By dividing and using the conversion of 31.75 gallons per ton and 3.79 liters per gallon we obtain liters of gas used per person. We can then use the same assumption as McKay of 10 kWh per liter.

After the above calculations, we get an average of 57 kWh per person.
