Kilowatt to Megawatt (KW to MW)

Kilowatt to Megawatt Converter

How to Convert Kilowatts (kW) to Megawatts (MW)

To convert kilowatts to megawatts, divide the number of kilowatts by 1,000.

kW to MW Calculation Formula

The power P in megawatts (MW) is equal to the power P in kilowatts (kW) divided by 1,000:

P(MW) = P(kW) / 1,000

Example Calculation

If you have a power measurement of 2,500 kW, the calculation would be:

P(MW) = 2,500 kW / 1,000 = 2.5 MW

Power (kW)

Kilowatts (kW) represent a unit of power commonly used in electrical systems.

Power (MW)

Megawatts (MW) represent a larger unit of power, often used in power generation.

Pro Tip

Always remember that 1 MW equals 1,000 kW when making conversions!
