But in developing countries thats exactly what you would use power for - internet, minimal LED lighting and refrigeration. If you are lucky you got AC on, but that will blow thru 120kwh in a day.

in developing countries you'd probably have AC in a single room of the house, usually the bedroom. Having AC in the whole house is very much a luxury.
