BTU to Kilowatt-Hour Calculator
BTU to Kilowatt-Hour (KWh) Conversion
To convert BTU (British Thermal Units) to Kilowatt-hours (kWh), use the formula:
Conversion Formula
KWh = BTU ÷ 3,412.142Alternatively, you can express it as:
E(KWh) = 0.00029307107017 × E(BTU)Where:
- KWh = Kilowatt-hours
- BTU = British Thermal Units
Example
If you have an energy amount of 10,000 BTU, the calculation would be:
KWh = 10,000 BTU ÷ 3,412.142 ≈ 2.93 KWhUsing the alternative formula:
E(KWh) = 0.00029307107017 × 10,000 BTU ≈ 2.93 KWhBritish Thermal Unit (BTU)
A British Thermal Unit (BTU) is a unit of heat energy. It is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.
Kilowatt-hour (KWh)
A kilowatt-hour (KWh) is a unit of energy that measures how much electricity is used over time. It represents the energy consumed when one kilowatt (1,000 watts) of power is used for one hour.
