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 Tonne of Oil Equivalent?
A tonne of oil equivalent (symbol: toe) is a unit of energy used to express the amount of energy released by burning one metric tonne of crude oil. By international convention, 1 tonne of oil equivalent equals 41.868 gigajoules (GJ), or 11.63 megawatt-hours (MWh). Tonnes of oil equivalent are widely used in energy economics, national energy statistics, environmental studies, and the oil and gas industry to compare different energy sources using a common reference.
The tonne of oil equivalent provides a standardized way to compare the energy content of fuels such as coal, natural gas, petroleum products, biomass, nuclear energy, and renewable electricity. Because it is based on a conventional reference value rather than the exact energy content of a specific crude oil, the unit enables consistent reporting across countries and organizations.
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.
