Energy cannot be created or destroyed and does not require time passage to exist at any moment.

Ah. OK. The fundamental equation is thus incorrect.
Stroll on.

I thought you had one so I found it strange me posting such basics...it's all good!
I misread and thought you put terrawatt instead of terrawatt hours: I can be a little pedantic but it's for the good cause of making correct conversation.

=> P=E/t
Wouldn't that actually imply that Power is undefined when t=0 i.e. Energy is attemptedly being divided by zero???

It would imply infinite power. Thus, energy in zero time is clearly absurd.

Not at all. Energy cannot be created or destroyed and does not require time passage to exist at any moment.

The fundamental SI unit of energy is the joule.

If it takes being pedantic to ensure accuracy, that's fine my me.
