However, I could not find the units in which the matrix elements are stored. The dimension, if I am not very wrong, should be Energy (shouldnt?!). I see that most energy-units in W90 are in eV, but I am not sure if this is so in all cases, does anybody know if W90 uses eV energy-units as default? 

Yes, the energy unit in W90 is always eV.

 There are some notes on units at the start of Chapter 8 of the user guide (p. 59)

 Yours
