Thermies (FR)

Definition

A thermie is a French unit of heat energy equal to 1,000 kilocalories, or approximately 4,184,000 joules. It was historically used in French engineering and heating systems.

History

The thermie was used in France and other French-speaking countries throughout the 20th century for industrial heating and energy calculations, before the widespread adoption of joules and kilowatt-hours.

Current use

The thermie is now largely obsolete but may still appear in older French engineering documentation, historical heating system specifications, and some regulatory texts.

Kilowatt-hours (kWh)

Definition

A kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 watt-hours or 3,600,000 joules. It represents the energy consumed by a 1,000-watt appliance running for one hour.

History

The kilowatt-hour became the standard billing unit for electricity with the widespread electrification of homes and businesses in the early 20th century. Power utilities worldwide adopted it for metering.

Current use

Kilowatt-hours are the universal unit for residential and commercial electricity billing. They are also used to measure electric vehicle battery capacity, solar panel output, and grid-level energy storage.
