Burning a kilogram of hydrogen will release around 114 thousand BTU's. By comparison, a kilo of gasoline only releases about 45 thousand BTUs (but take up a lot less space).

Fusing a kilo of hydrogen would yield over 284 billion BTU's, but I doubt that's the figure you're looking for.

Heat of Combustion = 62,000 BTU/Lb, or

326 BTU/Cu. Ft. at 60 Deg.F & atmospheric press.
