What is Energy?

Energy is the capacity of a physical system to do work or produce heat. The SI unit is the joule (J), defined as the work done when a force of one newton is applied over one meter (1 J = 1 N·m = 1 kg·m²/s²). Other important units include the kilowatt-hour (kWh)—used on electricity bills (1 kWh = 3.6 MJ)—the calorie (cal)—used in nutrition (1 food Calorie = 1 kcal = 4,184 J)—and the electronvolt (eV), used in atomic and particle physics (1 eV = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ J).

What is Gigawatt-hour?

Gigawatt-hour (symbol: GWh) is a unit of energy equal to the energy generated or consumed by one gigawatt of power operating for one hour. One gigawatt-hour is exactly equal to 3.6 terajoules, or 1,000 megawatt-hours. It is commonly used to report the annual electricity production of power plants and the energy consumption of cities and regions. Learn more about gigawatt-hour.

What is Barrel of Oil Equivalent?
