That chart seems to have been prepared by someone with poor technical knowledge. kWh is an integration of power drain over time, not a direct measure of power drain over time A time-varying chart of kWh is an absurdity. I strongly suspect the vertical axis is mislabeled. It should be kW, not kWh.

Comprehension of concepts matters.

A time varying chart of kWh can make sense (although not in this specific case). For example, if you want to know how much energy is stored in a battery at each time, a kWh/time graph is perfect.
