Being as to how the average power plant is probably 500mw/hr and their unit auxillary usage is 20+/mw/hr somebody is off a few decimals. "mw/hr" should be "mw".

"mw/hr" should be "mw" True, but it should actually be "MW" since the prefix "m" means "milli-" which is 1/1000 whereas "M" means "Mega-" which means one million. Watts should be abbreviated "W" rather than "w". "mW" is a valid term, but it means "milliwatt" which is 1/1000 of a watt.
