” 316,227,766,000 petajoules (316,227 petawatts)”
This makes no sense.
Anyone have any idea what it means?
316,227 petawatts for a million seconds?

A single petawatt is 1,000,000,000,000,000 (a quadrillion) watts. Compared to a blowdryer, or a microwave, at about 1,000 watts. You wouldn't want to get too close.

A joule is a watt-second.
You can not convert between joules and watts (peta or not) unless there is some unstated time factor involved.
