Megawatt-hour to Joule Conversion Formula

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

 Joule (J)\textbf{ Joule} \text{ (J)}

=60×60×106× Megawatt-hour (MWh)= 60 \times 60 \times 10^{6}\times \textbf{ Megawatt-hour} \text{ (MWh)}

=3600000000× Megawatt-hour (MWh)= 3600000000\times \textbf{ Megawatt-hour} \text{ (MWh)}

Example

Let's convert 5 Megawatt-hour (MWh) to Joule (J).

Using the formula:

5×3600000000=180000000005 \times 3600000000 = 18000000000

Therefore, 5 Megawatt-hour (MWh) is equal to 1800000000018000000000 Joule (J).
