Kilowatt hour per year is a power unit, and not a particularly useful one in my opinion.

I totally agree. "kWh/year" might be what people in the industry use (some people still use British Thermal Units, in the USA ...) but for a scientifically literate lay person "about 100 kW" is far easier to understand than "about 880,000 kilowatt hours of electricity each year". (I hope I calculated that correctly.)
