Average US residential power usage hasn’t really changed much over the last 20 years. This is generally because things become more energy efficient with time - e.g. typical light bulbs have gone from 60W to 8W.
Sure, the usage hasn't changed on average in about 20 years, but in the next 20 years, it's definitely going to increase dramatically.
Curious, which of our equipment will need more energy? Do you mean electric vehicles?
Yes, if the vast majority of cars are going to be electric in 20 years, you are definitely going to need a lot more power in order to charge them.
Then let’s get some vehicle-to-grid adoption going and make EVs a net benefit for spreading load better.
