How much electricity does your city use?

Darek must have more 30000+
I can to do the same. But for me it not quickly.

Wow
It's very cool! Incredible!
I havve another 50x airforce and probably 10 tesla. But it's not enough to receive your stats((

No I don’t. It isn’t about that either. Read Chloe’s first post!

I'm trying to update the electricity thread I just posted so that I can give guidance on the upper limits of energy a big city would use. There are no winners or losers.

yes, a nice initiative for people can plan ahead with this info about the expected electricity requirement as their city grows.

My Power usage and current limit is above but I will also state it here. I currently use 5,929 of 6,136 power capacity. In addition, I do have some Tesla power plants, Air Force Generators, and a Nuclear Power Plant in storage. I should be ready in case I ever want to expand. I still have commercial buildings for various reasons even though I'm slowly moving more towards residential buildings. I do have 48 Adventure Buildings.

Here's my leccy count

Thanks @Allan Browne

So far, I have only seen two players over 8k energy usage. Anybody over 9K? 10K?

I have a feeling we won't see it much higher. Most of the larger cities are primarily residential and adventure buildings, and with adventure buildings not really using electricity, we can expect things to pretty much level off here. If we didnt have auto-collect contracts, we probably would see higher electricity usage

I think so too. But I would like to have a "practical" limit and an extreme upper limit

I seriously don’t see my city as extreme. Yes lots of pax buildings but there are people with more. Dont understand really how I can have the highest usage.. that’s life I guess. Electricity guzzling city. Zero coal staffions tho so I try to be vaguely green!

 

[jpm-wv]

I wonder what is meant by "Highest usage" or "practical limit" really are. We can argue about what X is if we are talking about a practical limit. It is partly based on amount of land, land usage, and whatever else.

We can have a discussion about what "practical" is where everyone can easily have valid points for every side of the debate.

 

[Chloe11111]

I'm not looking for a debate really. Just trying to find out the high end of what you would ever practically need in the game.

Why buy 30 teslas if you will never really need more than 24? Why buy 10 city squares for coal stations if you can power the city more cheaply by buying teslas and replacing the coal stations and max land of 6 city squares?

I bought 33 teslas and will buy another 33 teslas cause it's can be a part of my new architecture.

You will never need that many. IF your city got up to 9000 electricity requirement, you would only need 30 tesla power plants total.
