Megawatt-hour to Gigajoule Conversion Formula

To convert from Megawatt-hour (MWh) to Gigajoule (GJ), use the following formula:

$\textbf{ Gigajoule} \text{ (GJ)}$

$= 60 \times 60 \times 10^{6} \times \frac{1}{10^{9}}\times \textbf{ Megawatt-hour} \text{ (MWh)}$

$= 3.6\times \textbf{ Megawatt-hour} \text{ (MWh)}$

Example

Let's convert 5 Megawatt-hour (MWh) to Gigajoule (GJ).

Using the formula:

$5 \times 3.6 = 18$

Therefore, 5 Megawatt-hour (MWh) is equal to $18$ Gigajoule (GJ).

What is a Megawatt-hour (MWh)?

A Megawatt-hour (MWh) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 3600000000 Joules (J). The plural form is Megawatt-hours.

What is a Gigajoule (GJ)?

A Gigajoule (GJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), equal to one billion Joules (10⁹ J). The plural form is Gigajoules.

What is the International System of Units (SI)?

The International System of Units (SI) is the modern form of the metric system and the most widely used system of measurement in the world. It is founded on seven fundamental units: the second (time), meter (length), kilogram (mass), ampere (electric current), kelvin (thermodynamic temperature), mole (amount of substance), and candela (luminous intensity).
