		In other energy units, the kilojoule is also equivalent to 0.238 846 kilocalories, 0.277 778 watt hour, or 737.562 foot-pounds in the traditional English system.
		One kilowatt hour represents the amount of energy delivered at a rate of 1000 watts over a period of one hour.
		Since the watt is 1 joule/sec and there are 3600 seconds in an hour, the kilowatt hour is equivalent to exactly 3.6 megajoules of energy, or about 3412.141 Btu, 859.846 (kilogram) Calories, or about 2.655 million foot pounds.

	What is a kilowatt-hour (kWh)?
		Usually, electricity is measured in kilowatts, or 1,000 watt units.
		The number of kilowatts used is multiplied by the number of hours of use, and the result is a kilowatt hour, or kWh.
		In the case of your electric bill, one 60-watt bulb used five hours per day for 30 days equals nine kilowatt hours (60 watts of power X 5 hours per day X 30 days divided by 1,000 = 9 kilowatt hours).

	MTDC Pubs, Saving Money by Understanding Demand Charges on Your Electric Bill, 0071 2373
		Any night or weekend, energy consumption (off peak) will cause the average cost per kilowatt hour to be lower than the actual cost during peak periods on workdays, because the demand charge for energy consumed off the peak is low or nonexistent.
		Estimating costs using the average annual cost per kilowatt hour will not give accurate results when the load is seasonal and the rates vary with the seasons.
		If the cost per kilowatt or kilowatt hour varies with demand or consumption, the unit cost of the load that triggers higher rates can be tremendous, because the new rates can be applied to the portion of the bill over the triggering amount, to the entire bill, or to all bills for the next year.

	Analysis of a 10-percent Renewable Portfolio Standard
		In the Reference case, the basic capital cost of new wind plants is expected to decline from $1,004 per kilowatt in 2002 to approximately $989 per kilowatt-hour in 2025.
		For example, with the RPS the cost of new wind plants is projected to decline to $971 per kilowatt by 2025.

		All energy shall be primary metered unless the Village desires secondary metering in which case the kilowatt-hours and kilowatt and kilovar demands shall be adjusted to reflect consumption as subsequently stated herein.
		When at the option of the Village metering is at a secondary voltage (480 volts or less) the metered kilowatt-hours and metered kilowatt and kilovar demands shall be increased by 1.5% to obtain the billing kilowatt-hours and billing kilowatt and kilovar demands without affecting the Minimum Monthly Charge.

	Return on your investment
		Many consumers make the mistake of simply multiplying the amount of kilowatt hours that a solar system produces by the baseline rate that the electric company is charging them to determine how long the system will take to pay for itself.
		Although the baseline rate is between 7.98 cents to 8.81 cents per kilowatt hour, look how dramatically the the rate rises once the consumption rises over the baseline rate.
		In light of all the charges and fees, a more accurate method for determining your actual cost per kilowatt hour would be to simply divide the total amount paid for the month by the number of kilowatt hours used for the month.
