Facebook used 5 TWhr in 2019 (citation: totally unverified top summary from google). Bitcoin alone is estimated to have used 110 TWhr in a year. To put that in perspective, that is sixfold the power output of the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant. The Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Produces power on the order of magnitude of detonating two small atomic bombs per day.
