Surely, money is also a factor here.
It's not as if every person on Earth is presented with 2,600 watts of power daily, free of charge, to consume by whatever activities each person selects.

Yes, energy consumption and the wealth of people in a country are strongly correlated.

Distribution of wealth is a whole other topic though and well beyond the scope of this post.
