What are Megawatt-hour and Ton-hour

Definition of Megawatt-hour

A Megawatt-hour (MWh) is a unit of energy equivalent to one megawatt (1 MW) of power expended for one hour (1 h) of time. It's widely used as a billing unit for energy delivered to consumers by electric utilities.

Definition of Ton-hour

A Ton-hour (TRh) is a unit of energy representing the amount of heat needed to melt one ton (2000 pounds) of ice in a 24-hour period. It is commonly used in the refrigeration and air conditioning industry.
