How to convert watt-hours to megawatt-hours

1 watt-hours (Wh) is equal to 1×10^-6 megawatt-hours (MWh). Conversely, 1 megawatt-hours (MWh) is equal to 1×10^6 watt-hours (Wh).

See below section for step by step unit conversion with formulas and explanations. Please refer to the table below for a list of all the Megawatt-hours to other unit conversions.

Step by step guide to convert watt-hours to megawatt-hours

Convert base units

Here, since the units are same, we just need to convert the metric prefix

1 Mega=1061\ Mega = 10^{6}

Substitute to calculate MWh

1 Wh=106MWh1\ Wh = 10^{6} MWh

What is watt-hours?

A watt-hour is a unit of energy and its units, Wh, are formed with W for watt and h for hour from SI unit system. Its definition, in the context of electricity, is the energy of one watt power flowing for one hour.

Followings equivalent equations are identical but in different units.

What is megawatt-hours?

A Megawatt-hour is a unit of energy and its units, MWh, are formed with W for watt and h for hour from SI unit system combined with letter M, metric prefix, for 1,000,000 or 10610^6. Its definition, in the context of electricity, is the energy of one watt power flowing for one hour.

Followings equivalent equations are identical but in different units. Please note that factor 10610^6 is representing Mega prefix in MWh unit.
