Understanding Energy Conversion
What is a Megacalorie (Mcal)?
A megacalorie (Mcal) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000,000 calories. It represents the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one metric ton of water by one degree Celsius at atmospheric pressure.
What is a Megawatt-Hour (MWh)?
A megawatt-hour (MWh) is a unit of energy equivalent to one megawatt (1,000 kilowatts) of power sustained for one hour. It's commonly used by power companies to measure large-scale energy production and consumption.
Conversion Formula
To convert from megacalories to megawatt-hours, use the following formula:
MWh = Mcal × 0.001162
