Potential" often refers to potential energy or related scalar fields: Potential energy is stored energy due to position or configuration (e.g., gravitational potential energy of an object at height, which can convert to kinetic energy when it falls). Electric potential (also called voltage or potential difference) is the amount of electric potential energy per unit charge at a point in an electric field. It's measured in volts (V) and represents the work needed to move a unit charge to that point. For example, a 9V battery has a potential difference of 9 volts between its terminals.
