Great article, really informative.
And yet, power just means energy flow per unit time. We all know the Watt is a unit of power consumption and have an idea how quickly a 1500 Watt kettle boils water. The unit of energy is the Joule - a Watt is just a flow of one Joule per second. The other popular unit of power is the horsepower. The conversion is that one horsepower = 756 Watts. A 100-HP car would be able to turn a 75,600 - Watt electrical generator, or 75.6 kilowatts. So anybody who does talk about energy, rarely speaks in Joules.
Unit of measure equivalents (for electricity) ENERGY UNITS AND CONVERSIONS by Dennis Silverman www.physics.uci.edu/~silverma. 1 Joule (J) is the MKS unit of energy, equal to the force of one Newton acting through one meter. 1 Watt is the power of a Joule of energy per second. Power = Current x Voltage (P = I V) 1 Watt is the power from a current of 1 Ampere flowing through 1 Volt. 1 kilowatt is a thousand Watts. 1 kilowatt-hour is the energy of one kilowatt power flowing for one hour.
