Therm (EC)
The therm (EC) is 100,000 Btu (International Table), or about 105.5 megajoules (MJ). Gas in the United Kingdom was historically billed in therms, and the EC stands for European Community, to tell it apart from the US therm.
Therm (US)
A US therm is 105,480,400 joules, which is 100,000 Btu (59°F) and roughly the energy in 100 cubic feet of natural gas. US gas bills are often given in therms.
