Kilowatt-hour to Kilocalorie Conversion Formula

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

 Kilocalorie (kcal)\textbf{ Kilocalorie} \text{ (kcal)}

=60×60×1000×14.184×11000× Kilowatt-hour (kWh)= 60 \times 60 \times 1000 \times \frac{1}{4.184} \times \frac{1}{1000}\times \textbf{ Kilowatt-hour} \text{ (kWh)}

=860.42065009560229446× Kilowatt-hour (kWh)= 860.42065009560229446\times \textbf{ Kilowatt-hour} \text{ (kWh)}

With 14.184\frac{1}{4.184} is the ratio between the base units calorie (cal) and Joule (J).

Example

Let's convert 5 Kilowatt-hour (kWh) to Kilocalorie (kcal).

Using the formula:

5×860.42065009560229446=4302.10325047801147235 \times 860.42065009560229446 = 4302.1032504780114723

Therefore, 5 Kilowatt-hour (kWh) is equal to 4302.10325047801147234302.1032504780114723 Kilocalorie (kcal).
