Yeah, it measures the same thing we normally use Joule for, or in some situations kcal (as in dietary calories). The kWh unit is just because it's assumed to be simpler for electric bills than MJ.

I guess here in Norway we can celebrate Joule with Joulenissen that brings battery-powered toys for the kids
