Understanding Megawatt-Hours and Watt-Hours
What is a Megawatt-Hour (MWh)?
A megawatt-hour represents the amount of electrical energy equivalent to a power consumption of one megawatt sustained for one hour. It's commonly used by power plants and utilities to measure large amounts of electricity production and consumption.
Conversion Formula
To convert megawatt-hours (MWh) to watt-hours (Wh), multiply the MWh value by 1,000,000:
Watt-hours (Wh) = Megawatt-hours (MWh) × 1,000,000
Common Applications
This conversion is particularly useful for:
- Calculating industrial power consumption
- Converting utility bills and power usage statistics
- Analyzing renewable energy production data
- Planning energy storage systems
