Kilowatt-hour to Gigawatt-hour Conversion Formula

To convert from Kilowatt-hour (kWh) to Gigawatt-hour (GWh), use the following formula:

 Gigawatt-hour (GWh)\textbf{ Gigawatt-hour} \text{ (GWh)}

=60×60×1000×160×60×109× Kilowatt-hour (kWh)= 60 \times 60 \times 1000 \times \frac{1}{60 \times 60 \times 10^{9}}\times \textbf{ Kilowatt-hour} \text{ (kWh)}

=10−6× Kilowatt-hour (kWh)= 10^{-6}\times \textbf{ Kilowatt-hour} \text{ (kWh)}

Example

Let's convert 5 Kilowatt-hour (kWh) to Gigawatt-hour (GWh).

Using the formula:

5×10−6=0.0000055 \times 10^{-6} = 0.000005

Therefore, 5 Kilowatt-hour (kWh) is equal to 0.0000050.000005 Gigawatt-hour (GWh).
