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.
About Watt (W)
The SI derived unit of power, one watt equals one joule per second. Named after James Watt, the Scottish inventor who improved the steam engine, the watt measures everything from LED light bulb consumption (5-15 W) to microwave oven output (700-1,200 W) and charging speeds of electronic devices.
