Actually, it does not accord with any equations. Energy can not be instantaneous.

I think maybe therein is the crux of the matter.
Call the period or passage of time p.
For 0<p<1 as you suggest, p is a finite value. It could, for example, 0.5s, that being the passage of time. That isn't instantaneous.

Going back to your comment in post #35
"Fundamentally speaking, a unit of power (Watt) is equivalent to a unit of energy (Joule) over a unit of time (Second)"
That gives us:
W=J/s
And that gives us the more fundamental definition:
Power is the RATE of doing work. It could be Nm/s, ft-lbf/s, kW etc.
(That applies whether it is electrical, mechanical, or fluid power.)
The rate of doing work.
Energy is what you get from that rate of work over a period of time. No time, no energy.
One kWh can be generated in an hour, a week, or 1ms (1ms being 3.6GW)
But not instantaneously.

An analogy that may be helpful......
Suppose that you drive at a rate of 60kph.
Travel for an hour you do 60km
In a minute, 1km
In a second, 17m
In 1ms, 17mm.

In other words, the rate at which you travel (instantaneous speed) tells you nothing about the distance you will cover unless you define time period. You can't instantly cover 50m.
