This is the second episode in our 7minutesolar 101 series of podcasts about the basics of solar energy and power.

In this we take seven minutes to give an easily remembered (and we hope entertaining) tutorial on what is the actual definition of a watt, how a watt is a measure of power other than just electricity is, how energy is different from power why we get billed for electricity use in kilowatt HOURS, not kilowatts…and what all of this has to do with eating apples.
