      32500000000 KW/h per year

      That's 32500000000 kWh/y
= 32500000000 * k * W * h / y
= 32500000000 * k * W * h / (365 * 24 * h)
= 32500000000 * k * W * h / 8760 / h
= 32500000000 / 8760 * k * W * h / h
= 3710046 * k * W * 1
= 3710046 kW

      (You actually corrected yourself when converting to mW.)

        Since watt is joule per second, kwh per year is one kilojoule per second per hour per year.

          kWh is kilojoule per second times 3600 seconds or 3600 kilojoule. kWh/y is 3600 joule per year or 3600 kilojoule / (24*3600*365) ~0.1W

      A kW/h would imply that the power changes by that amount every hour, while a kWh is the amount of energy spent in an hour
