power output
Generated energy rate
Power output is the rate at which energy is delivered or work is performed, typically measured in watts or horsepower.
The term appears across domains—engines, amplifiers, solar panels, human exertion: The generator's power output dropped during the storm.
In audio equipment, higher power output generally means greater volume capability.
Athletes and cyclists track power output to measure performance.
