Storage capacity (also known as energy capacity) measures the total amount of electricity a battery can store. The spec indicates how much electricity a battery can deliver over time before needing to be recharged. This metric is usually provided in watt-hours (wH) or kilowatt-hours (kWh) for larger batteries.
