Kilojoules
A Kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 joules. It is commonly used to measure energy in various scientific and engineering contexts, as well as in nutrition to quantify the energy content of foods. One kilojoule is the amount of energy required to apply a force of one newton over a distance of one kilometer, or the energy transferred when one kilowatt of power is applied for one second. Kilojoules are used in fields such as physics, chemistry, and engineering to quantify work, heat, and energy, providing a standard measure for comparing energy content and transfer across different systems and processes.
Megawatt-hour
A Megawatt-hour (MWh) is a unit of energy that measures the amount of electrical energy consumed or generated over time. One megawatt-hour is equivalent to one megawatt (1,000,000 watts) of power used or produced for one hour. This unit is commonly used to quantify large-scale energy usage, such as that of power plants, industrial facilities, or in the context of national and regional energy consumption. For example, if a power plant operates at 1 megawatt of output for one hour, it produces 1 MWh of energy. Megawatt-hours are crucial for understanding and managing large-scale energy production and consumption.
