    Assuming 100 kw bulb

    We'll start by figuring out how much energy in kilowatt-hours the light bulb uses per year. We multiply how much power it uses in kilowatts, by the number of hours in a year. That gives 0.1 kW x 8,760 hours or 876 kWh x 9 bulbs = 7884 kWh

    The electricity produced by 4 tons x 2460 kWh/ton = 9840 kwh

    Since the produced electricity is bigger so it is enough
