The comments here would suggest power is the accumulated energy? The example at the link above shows BTU/h as being power, and BTU as being energy.
I've always treated power as kW and energy as kWh. Is the BTU example in the link correct?

Looks right to me... BTU, kWh, Calorie, Joule, are all units of energy: instantaneous power accumulated over time. The power unit is reached by dividing out the time: BTU/hour, kWh/h==kW.
