The term GWh (gigawatt-hour) is a unit of energy commonly used to quantify large-scale electricity generation, consumption, or storage. It represents one billion watt-hours and serves as a critical metric in environmental and energy sectors for assessing the output of power plants, the capacity of renewable energy installations, or the energy demands of industries and cities. As a derived unit of the International System of Units (SI), the GWh facilitates standardized comparisons across global energy systems.
