Take a look at the units:
1 Watt = 1 Joule/Second
A joule is a unit of energy. For example, 1 Joule = .239 calories =
Therefore 60 Watts=60 Joules/Second
So that means for every second, the light consumes 60 Joules. You must know for how long the light will be on to know how much energy will be consumed.
