Fuel Oil Equivalent @kiloliter
Fuel oil equivalent (foe) is a unit of energy representing the amount of energy contained in one kiloliter of fuel oil.
History/Origin
The foe has been used historically in energy and fuel industries to quantify large quantities of energy, particularly in the context of oil and energy resource assessments.
Current Use
Today, the foe is primarily used in energy statistics and reports to compare and aggregate energy consumption and production across different sources and regions.
Gigawatt-Hour
A gigawatt-hour (GW·h) is a unit of energy equal to one billion watt-hours, representing the amount of energy produced or consumed over one hour at a power level of one gigawatt.
History/Origin
The gigawatt-hour emerged as a standard unit of energy measurement in the 20th century with the development of large-scale power generation and electrical engineering, facilitating the quantification of energy production and consumption in power plants and grids.
Current Use
Gigawatt-hours are used today to measure large-scale energy production, consumption, and capacity in power systems, renewable energy projects, and national energy statistics, aiding in energy management and planning.
