Kilowatt-Hour to Watt Converter
How to Convert Kilowatt-hours (kWh) to Watts (W)
Curious about how kilowatt-hours translate to watts? Let’s break it down!
kWh to W Calculation Formula
The relationship between kilowatt-hours and watts can be expressed as:
W = kWh / hours × 1000Where:
- kWh = Kilowatt-hours
- W = Watts
- hours = Time in hours
Example Calculation
If you have a total energy consumption of 5 kWh over 2 hours, the calculation would be:
W = 5 kWh / 2 hours × 1000 = 2500 WKilowatt-hours (kWh)
Kilowatt-hours (kWh) measure the total energy consumed over time. For more information, visit this Palmetto page.
Watts (W)
Watts (W) measure the rate of energy transfer or conversion.
Kilowatt-hour (kWh) to Watt (W) Conversion Table
Formula: W = (kWh × 1000) / hours
| Kilowatt-hour [kWh] | Watt [W] |
|---|---|
| 1 kWh for 1 hour | 1000 W |
| 2 kWh for 1 hour | 2000 W |
| 3 kWh for 1 hour | 3000 W |
| 4 kWh for 1 hour | 4000 W |
| 5 kWh for 1 hour | 5000 W |
| 10 kWh for 1 hour | 10000 W |
| 100 kWh for 1 hour | 100000 W |
| 500 kWh for 1 hour | 500000 W |
| 1000 kWh for 1 hour | 1000000 W |
