About BTU per Hour (BTU/h)

BTU per hour measures the heating or cooling capacity of HVAC systems in the United States. Home air conditioners are rated in BTU/h (a window unit might provide 8,000-12,000 BTU/h), and furnace output determines how quickly a building can be heated in cold weather.

About Gigawatt (GW)

One billion watts, the gigawatt is used for national-scale power generation statistics and major infrastructure. The Hoover Dam produces about 2 GW at peak, and the Three Gorges Dam in China has a capacity of 22.5 GW. The famously quoted '1.21 gigawatts' from Back to the Future is actually a plausible lightning bolt power level.
