In SI, if a unit is too small or too big, either standard prefixes or scientific notation is used. Standard prefixes would be, for example, kilojoule (a thousand Joule), megajoule (a million Joule), gigagoule (a billion Joule) etc. But if you want to indicate the power output of the Sun for example, the numbers are so enormous that it doesn't make sense to use special prefixes; scientific notation is much clearer in this case (3.83 x 1026 Watt or Joules/second).
