Sure, but you can then read the next sentence and the confusion should disappear.
The right answer is to use power and energy capacity respectively if you’re talking to lay people but this publication is talking to people who disambiguate based off the units pretty easily.
Nuclear capacity/wind capacity/Energy Storage Capacity. Three different delivery methods for power. That’s how they’d read it at the end of the sentence.
But anyway, the trick is to perform either unit disambiguation or perform one sentence lookahead.
And finally, think of it as no different from using the summation convention in tensor notation. You read it and you’re like wtf but that’s because you’re not the audience and you lack the context to get it.
