What are kilowatts per hour???

Kilowatts per hour would be the rate of increase in power usage if there really were such a term in use. It would measure a concept analogous to acceleration, such that it is the second time derivative of energy usage. When you see kWhr as a unit of electricity, it isn’t “kilowatts per hour”, it is “kilowatts multiplied by hours”. Dash “-“, or space, means multiplication when it is seen in units. When seen in equations, dash means subtraction and asterisk means multiplication. Slash “/” means division in any case. Kilowatts measure a rate at which energy is converted, kilowatt-hours are a unit of the cumulative amount of energy used.
