Therm
A therm is a unit of energy used primarily to measure natural gas consumption, equivalent to 100,000 British thermal units (BTUs).
History/Origin
The therm was introduced in the early 20th century by the American Gas Association to standardize natural gas billing and measurement; it became widely adopted in North America for energy calculations.
Current Use
Today, the therm is still used in the natural gas industry for billing and energy measurement, although other units like gigajoules and cubic meters are also common globally.
Therm (Us)
The therm (US) is a unit of energy used primarily to measure natural gas consumption, equivalent to 100,000 British thermal units (BTUs).
History/Origin
The therm was introduced in the early 20th century as a practical unit for billing natural gas, standardizing energy measurement in the United States. It has been widely adopted in the energy industry for commercial and residential gas usage.
Current Use
Today, the therm (US) is still used in the natural gas industry for billing and energy calculations, although it has been largely supplemented by the gigajoule and other SI units in scientific contexts.
