	Terawatt-hour - Open Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The terawatt hour (TW·h) is a unit for measuring energy.
		It is the amount of energy that would be produced by a 1,000,000 MW generator over a period of one hour, or a 114 MW generator over a period of approximately one year.
		The terawatt hour is commonly used for large amounts of electrical energy, since it may be easier to understand in a practical context than the proper SI unit for energy, the joule, which is a watt second (W·s).

	Watt-hour - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The watt hour is not an SI unit because it contains the non-SI unit (hour).
		The watt hour is derived from the multiplication of the SI unit of power (watt) and the non-SI unit of time (hour).
		The kilowatt-hour is commonly used for electrical energy and natural gas energy.

	hour
		In modern usage, an hour is defined as a unit of time 60 minutes, or 3600 seconds in length.
		When a clock showed these hours, its speed had to be changed every morning and evening, for example by changing the length of its pendulum.
		So, sunrise is always exactly at the beginning of the 1st hour, noon at the end of the 6th hour, and sunset exactly at the end of the 12th hour.

	Terawatt-hour
		August 17.--Our course this day led us over a barren, rocky country, usually wet and marshy: latterly we appear to be descending from a a mere scrub covered with dwarf iron barks, apple trees, and small gums; detached roots.
		The horses fell repeatedly in the course of the day, four and five o'clock, after travelling about ten hours, we stopped at a miles.
		In our track we saw no signs of natives, and the country seemed different trying obstructions we encountered during this day's journey: quicksand, we had accomplished nearly eleven miles, and were looking out barks which had been lately burnt; and their fl stems and branches, singularly dismal and gloomy appearance.

		The previous definitions of the 'Watt' as well as the kW, the MW, the GW and TW are extremely useful as they can be used to tell us how much power, in any second, is generated by a generator.
		One watt-hour is equivalent to one watt of power consumed (or generated) for a period of one hour of time.
		Alternatively it is equivalent to the power which would have been produced by a generator, with a capacity of 7.7MW, running for one hour.

	Winds, Waves, Tides - Energy from the Oceans
		Editor's note: Terawatts of energy bombard earth daily via the sun's rays, but competitively converting renewable solar energy into usable energy, electricity in particular, remains a formidable hurdle.
		When evaluating totally renewable sources of energy for their economic viability, the world's oceans beckon as an alternative quietly emerging, especially in Europe, as a replacement to fossil fuels that could take hold before solar solutions.
		However, as the lunar cycle is of around 25 hours' duration, the timing of peak outputs differs by around an hour each day and tidal energy cannot be guaranteed at times of peak demand.

		There are no data available on the total production from these captive sets, but according to Tata Energy Research Institute, which conducted a field survey on non-utility generation in 1985, the average annual usage of captive sets in two states with power shortages (Haryana and Uttar Pradesh) was between 1,500 and 3,500 hours/year.
		On the assumption of a power factor of 0.8 and an annual utilization of 2,000 hours of full load for captive sets in Tamil Nadu these figures suggest that captive generating sets account for 1,533 MWh which is equivalent to approximately 1V% of the energy supplied to the TNEB grid.

		The re-start of KAP (which consumed 1.74TWh in 2001) and a sharp increase in the household consumption (which practically doubled during the last decade) caused imports to reach a level which is close to the network physical capacity and its stability limits.
