1 kilowatt = 1,000 watts 6 kilowatts = 6,000 watts 6 kilowatt-hours = 6,000 watt-hours
This would be 30 watthours, or 0.030 kilowatthours
energy = power * time = 20w * 1hr = 20 watthours or 0.02 kilowatthours
Kilowatthours was created in 1998.
That is impossible. That are different things.

kWh stands for kiloWatthours, the amount of electrical energy an appliance uses or generates in one hour measured in kiloWatts. It has nothing to do with one cubic metre of water.
Joules(international) or watthours(communly used)
Kilo = 1000. Watts the produce of Amps x Volts. One hour is not divided up into kilowatt hours, it is the use of 1000 watts over a period of one hour.
Question: How much electricity does a typical American home use? In 2007, the average monthly residential electricity consumption was 936 kilowatthours (kWh).Last updated: February 6, 2009 http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/ask/electricity_faqs.asp
Your are paying for the work of the electric power company and that is power in kilowatts times time in hours. You pay for "kilowatthours".
One 25w solar panel for one 100w bulb. A 100-watt solar panel can produce about 400 watthours of power per day. A typical home consumes about 25,000 watthours per day. So you would need 62 one-hundred watt solar panels to run an average home.
