Default show text after formulas

I have some formulas with text added to the result. For example, I might
have a result of: 4.9¢/kWh
In the formula cell, I set the numeric format to number, one digit after
decimal.

How do I retain the format when I have the numeric set to show commas? When
I want to show a result of: 2,345,899 kWh Excel gives me a result of:
2345899 kWH.

Why is it ignoring my format when I introduce text? A formula example when
this happens might be:

=ROUND(((G40/H45)*D19*100 ),0)&"kWh"

help! this is driving me crazy!! I want to show units in the same cell, but
these numbers need commas to read them easier!!
