Yeah, you know actually, I know this because I have an EV. I guess I just looked at what the GP posted and posted the same unit.

For batteries, GWh is the correct unit though (storage). Just not for panels/generators/etc.

Really the correct unit is Joules, but try convincing anyone of that.

Watt-hours and joules are the same thing, and you are indeed technically correct, but you'll get funny looks if you ask to buy an 18MJ BESS for your home...
