Milliwatt to Gigawatt Conversion Formula

To convert from Milliwatt (mW) to Gigawatt (GW), use the following formula:

 Gigawatt (GW)\textbf{ Gigawatt } (GW)

=11000×1109× Milliwatt (mW)= \frac{1}{1000} \times \frac{1}{10^{9}}\times \textbf{ Milliwatt } (mW)

=11012× Milliwatt (mW)= \frac{1}{10^{12}}\times \textbf{ Milliwatt } (mW)

=10−12× Milliwatt (mW)= 10^{-12}\times \textbf{ Milliwatt } (mW)

Example

Let's convert 5 Milliwatt (mW) to Gigawatt (GW).

Using the formula:

5×10−12=5×10−125 \times 10^{-12} = 5\times 10^{-12}

Therefore, 5 Milliwatt (mW) is equal to 5×10−125\times 10^{-12} Gigawatt (GW).
